If you're rebuilding a 914 2.0 and already have a set of heads, just have them rebuilt. There's no need to buy new ones at $900 each as long as your old ones aren't too far gone. Even at a worse case scenario with your heads needing new seats, some welding to fix cracks, etc. a qualified machine shop should be able to have your heads as good as new. By the way, bus 2.0 heads have smaller valves than 914 1.7's. If you want to go cheaper than 914 2.0's, I would look at the 914 1.8 heads. They're within 1 or 2 mm on both the intake and exhaust sizes and are cheap to buy valves for (unlike the 914 2.0 exhaust).
