Cylinder Head Issues

Recommended Posts

I bought allegedly a 1995 turbo 850 cylinder head with the part number 1001671. When I went to look at my 1996 turbo head on the car still it reads 1001676. Then I proceded to look at my 1996 NA 850 and it has the part number 1001671, just like the "turbo" head I bought. Did I really buy a NA head or are they compatible? I don't want to waste the money on a port and polish if its the wrong one, plus I want my money back!

me thinks you got screwed and bought an N/A head, or GLT head.....return it my friend.

After searching around this afternoon I came across the pictures of TTA racings turbo 850 and there were a couple of close pics of the head and it happend to be the same part number: 1001671. Maybe it will work?!

Is it possible that all the casting numbers are the same, and the difference lies in valve size and porting after the initial casting? I'll check Vadis tomorrow, but this may be the case.

Thanks!!

Thanks!!

I looked on Vadis. None of the numbers that I found match your number. My copy of Vadis is old, but I think you may have an older part number. Or this isnt a partnumber at all. Most Volvo numbers relating to cylynder heads seem to start either 914, 811 or 500. your number doesn't return anything on vadis pn search. Sorry. If you have any additional numbers, you can PM me and I'll do what I can. Good luck

If anyone could check there 1994-1998 turbo heads for the part number that would be a HUGE help. The number I'm looking for is located near the distributor cap on the top , I believe underneath the spark plug cover. Thanks
