I've found a remanufactured complete HO head from the States (USA) for AUD$870 inc. post, seems reasonable ($1500 was the best price in Aus).

Any other suggestions?
Anyone have a left hand HO head laying about?
I'm currently in no hurry.
While it is apart I'd pull the other head and do it at the same time, it may save you a shed load in future.

No sense half doing a job unless you are going to get rid of it.
