Blake, this really has to do with how many miles the engine has.  If you
are up in miles and or have less than favorable compression, oil
pressure, etc, then this may not be a bad stop-gap measure while you save
your beer money for a tiico or a new engine. But if this engine has low
miles, and you want to drive it forever, then i'd probably go with new
heads and NOT reusing the ones that came out.  Do you know what your
compression was before ripping the heads off?

good luck
Matthew
