got drunk last night
got fucked up last night, and bought this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...BSAA%3AUS%3A31
I was watching it to get for the starting price but when I got drunk I started thinking that someone will wait till the last minute like me and bid big, and I really need a head, so I said ---- it. and buy it already paid for it.
do you guys think I made a mistake? or will this head be usefull in putting me to 450whp?
the main thing I was looking at was that it was milled .40 thousandts but to think about about it my current head was milled .30 thousandts, and I did not have a problem, plus I was getting ready to mill it again to get a sealing surface.
another thing I was looking at, is that the springs have been shimmed to spring height for skunk 2 stage 3 cams. did some research to find out what that mean, and found out it was ok to use it with stock GSR cams, but if I dont want it I can always take the shims out, I think I am gonna keep them in it.
I posted a question on H-T but I forgot that if you dont have high hp numbers or full race in your title no one will look at your post, so I change it then I got a lot of views but still no answer, I was so fucked up man.
the good thing is I have no hangover. man I was tripping.

thats a good price if everything is in order. i suggest you ask a hmt member local in florida to go check and make sure the head he sends you is the one you paid for. if it was in washington i'd do it for you.

let me know what you suggest.
I called the guy this morning, he seem to know a lot about the head, and so on, he said he will throw some extras in the box, because he is getting out of the racing scene. he said the head was used on a high compression 14.5 b20 block thats high.
I hope this head will give me some head performance
I needed a head since mines need some repairs, and cam caps damaged, could not find any, and everyone want over $500 for the stock ones, so I figured that was a good deal since all the work that was done worth 4 b16 heads, I will repair and sell mine, or sell it as it is so it would basically pay half its cost, my head also have titaniun retainer and springs.
