Sent one of my heads to the machine shop for cooking and magnafluxing prior to the install of O/S valves, hard inserts and milling. Just got a call from the machine shop guy that the head has a crack across one of the exhaust seats into the combustion chamber. Guess it's time to pull a head off one of the motors I have laying around.
