940 2.0turbo 1991 head issues
So I've taken the head of because of head gasket failure and found half of the waterways blocked solid and they are heavily corroded around the holes to 😞. Question is do i need a 2.0ltr turbo head or can i use a N/A or ever a 2.3ltr one?

Ideally you want a turbo head.
It is a very common issue and we can repair them. B200 and B230 heads are the same. |

What he said.
When you fit a new head assume those dinky little water pipes under the engine around the oil filter are gunked up too, replace. I have a skimmed head but it's not ready for sale as I need to helicoil(or other) one of the sparkplug holes.
