I got some new heads, i know i have to have them checked, but a few of the pics look weird, What do you guys think?
I agree with Adam. That last picture has me concerned.They look like they were sitting in water.
Know any good ones locally GTX? Ive know of one in Hayward.
Here are a few suggestions but I would want to talk to you some more to expand on these suggestions:
Mopar Engines West (Newark): I currently have several pieces there.
Rob's Machine (Hayward)
S&K Machine (Belmont)
Mopar engines West: Arnt they realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly expensive?
Robs: Thats where im going to take my my engine to have the work done
S&K: I think my buddy works there (Tony Hunter)?????
I was wondering if you knew any one in San Jose or our area, just for a tank and flux
Me to, What are your concerns? The water journals(?) look weird. Do you think there ok?
The whole water jacket hole appears to be so rusted out that it would not seal. The casting around that hole looks really thin too.
Looks like the poor things spent too much of their lives with a leaky radiator that didn't see antifreeze that often (can you say overheat, crack, warp?). Think I'd throw them in the drag race pile and find another set to drive. Just my $.02.
is that a crack? second pic from the top, the right hand side cylinder intake valve about ten o'clock
Can it be fixed?
damnimcooltom What castings are those?
In the first pic casting#4027596=81-83' 318 H.P. heads it looks like.
Sorry, but i can't make that determination from a picture. Bring them to a reputable machine shop and they could tell you in probably 5 minutes if it's worth fixing. I've got a feeling what they'll say though......:angry7:
