Hey Cylinder heads guys- advice needed

The pretty sunk looking exhaust seat “looks to me” like some of MP’s spotty QC to me.
It’s lower than it should be, but I think it came out of the box like that.

In the early 90’s I used a set of the short valve econo’s on an oval track motor.
They were brand new.
I converted it over to 11/32 stem valves, and used .100 long SBC valves(5.010” long).
Bought the T&D single shaft system for them, which for that head have the bolt holes on center, just like stock heads.

Everything fit fine and worked great.

They went on a motor in a limited class with a flat tappet cam and a 2bbl.
The Chevy guys could run iron bow-tie heads.

The motor was built and dynoed, they had it in the car ready to go, and at the last minute the series go cancelled.
These guys were already running in a couple other series, but those series required stock heads.

All I did was update the top end to one of their existing motors to the w2 stuff.
They never got to run it in the car at a race.
