    Odd request but I need cam caps, specifically the outer cam caps that the cam seals fit into. I'm interested in multiple so I can find ones that match my head the best. If anyone has some junk heads laying around I'm very interested in the caps. Subaru won't sell them alone and my next best option is to buy full used heads off Ebay and hope the caps fit on my built heads. Name you're price.

    I have some sitting in a box, but the front ones might be damaged...

    That's because they are specific to the cylinder head and specific to position on that cylinder head. Even if you find used ones and have them line bored, I doubt it would end well.

    What happened to the caps for the built heads? if its a damaged seal surface... clean it up with acetone, taper grind/sand and tig it back in with a quality filler rod. Any machine shop can redo the seal area after its welded
