Ken,

All I have to say is "AMEN, AMEN, AMEN".

If I have learned nothing else from my recent engine problems it has

been this.

Use new heads as Ken suggests.

Also ... as good as the AMC heads are ... most seem to be advising to check and

possibly replace the valves, depending on the brand used ... and rework the valve

keepers.

Never, never, never use rebuilt heads! That is all I can say. I am not

getting on you for trying to save a couple of bucks, however do you see

the reason why I advise you to never use rebuilt heads?
