	Hello, I am looking for an 850cc unleaded head for my 1979 Mini City. Doesn't need to be perfect as I want this to refurb myself, but not to ratty because it'll be my first effort! Thanks Treacle

	850 heads are the same as the 998 heads, so unless you are obsessed with originality, the 998 head is a lot easier to find. That said.. I am pretty sure there is no such thing as an unleaded 850 head. If you want unleaded, you are looking for a late 998 casting.

	Yes, I am utterley obcessed with originality! I guess the other option is to try to track down a 850cc leaded head and get it converted; would that be feasible? Thanks T
