Message	if he's just looking to offload it, then yes, I agree, it wouldn't be worth it. Apparently you've seen some poorly welded heads. I had a set of 95 heads that clearly had detonation damage, so I took them to a head shop to get checked for cracks and none were found. So, I proceeded to port them, only to find out later by a more competent shop that they were indeed cracked. Being that they were rare 95 heads and I had put in a lot of time porting them, it was a no brainer to get them fixed. I was getting a valve job done anyways, so there was no extra expense.
