You know guys and gals,I am just going to repeat what has been said many times before.By the time you make a used set of heads right is right and spend good money to do that,you still don't have the aftermarket heads that flow better,have thicker passages,are a better product to work with and really in some cases don't cost that much more and most importantly are a brand new set of heads.But that is my two cents worth and what direction this old boy is taking with his project.

I am constantly baffled by folks who seem to think their project has some deadline date.If only they would just wait and save alittle more money,they would get it right the first time.Also get it the way they would want the first time spending once and not twice.

Gary makes an excellent point. My philosophy may be a little more extreme than others, but I make it a point to use all new parts in a build. The only things I will re-use are the block and possibly the crankshaft. That's it. If I am spending thousands on an engine, I want the best and most reliable parts available. If I cannot afford to do it right, I wait until I have the money (or put it on my credit card--I don't recommend that).
