thats true but i don't think anyone would go through that much trouble to rip off someone. But then again i have seen worse stuff happen so. I don't know much about the head, sorry.

Isn't the intake manifold unique to the R? I think it is(I don't know about the last SI though, could have something similar, anyone?), it has short, large diameter runners. Someone else know this?

Yeah...there are lots of pics online of type R manifolds...

Doesn't the type R head have p73 stamped on it?
