Good feedback, but in the pictures, it looks like on of the heads has a couple hols or something in the side. The 3rd and 5th picture.... see? Anyway, what do you guys think? Is this a decent deal? It worries me that there are no bids. I'd be getting them rebuilt..... Thanks! Cole (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/monkeydance.gif) |

Looks like some serious damage when that valve let go, the opposite head looks like piston chunks have seared to it.
Bank on a full rebuild, welding and grinding to straighten things back out. Probably an easy $1000 bucks in servicing, add that to the cost. I think you would sleep better at night paying a chunk more on a pair of heads in runnable or rebuilt shape to begin with - you will be money ahead. |
