SOLD! 06 JCW HEAD Complete unit, ready to bolt on! 9K, Excellant condition! $600.00 shipping included! PayPal Thank you!
JCW head has extra porting on the exhaust side. Since it was designed for R53 engine, the valves are harder than a R50. R50 engine with JCW head is about 128 hp. Not sure what the increase is with R53.
The car was an 06 MCS JCW with 9K original miles. In Nov, 2010, car was parked in detached 2 car garage. Winster storm toppled tree which fell thru garage roof, crushing Mini. I purchased complete engine. Sold block. Car was in complete running order when destroyed. When head was removed, you could still see the hone swirl marks in the cylinders. Like brand new.
