    -The head casting # ended in "200". That's an eta head. If he had a "high performance" m20b27, it sure as heck wouldn't have an eta head, even a ported one.

    -And +1 to the s-eta having an "885" head casing number. I should know ;)

            Damn. I had kind of accepted that it was an e, but I was still clinging on to that last little bit of hope.

            What does that mean?

                    Oil pan is really dusty, dont know if its steel or not. It has a hole in the bottom with 3 studs around it- I dont think my car has this but I could be wrong.
