I can find you a head over here on auction. Usually, it comes with a whole engine. Shipping an engine to US costs about $100 for a whole engine. The engines usually sell for around $150 depending on the # of miles and condition. Here is one that I found today....

Looks like it's at a good price right now. The only irregular thing the seller reports is a 'small noise' coming for the top-end, which he/she thinks might be coming from the 'tappets.'

Worth taking a chance at that price though.

There is no english version. I use yahoo babelfish translator, and it gets me enough info to understand the item. Like Tremor said, it claims there is noise in the upper area, like lifters rattling. It is probably the timing chain being a little slack.
