Surely they all fit ?

They'll fit... What you have to watch is the valve sizes... Sometimes brazzy heads have smaller than stock valve sizes

Vw heritage are selling them, will any twin port heads fit or have i got to upgrade to these?

Get the EuroMax twin port heads from heritage if you can. They are decent castings and the correct valve sizes.

As said before Brazillian heads may have smaller valves and some of them run smaller plugs than the stock Bosch W8AC's as they wanted to avoid cracking between valve seats and the plug aperture as they run on high alcohol content fuels (or in some cases pure alcohol).

I used to sell these when I worked for another parts supplier and I have to say I would not be in a rush to fit them due to the poor casting and and mediocre machining compared to an original head or even the majority of after market heads
