i am confused,i thought i would see a valve with a portion burnt out but it looks o.k . to me,,with the cam off and all valves seated ,head upside down ,i poured a small amount off gas in the compression area, it did not seep through,if the valve was not seating properly wouldn't the gas run through? when the car was running you could feel it blowing out the exhaust pipe,,i guess one question is should i take this head to a shop or try to find another one in the junk yard? thanks,kris
