The shop fixed one head. They found that on the other head something with the valves would of been too thin. I don't remember now. I bought a NOS head as a replacement. As i look back i wish i had just replaced both heads but so far i have had no problems. The truck seems to run good as far...

I looked at the heads today and the low spot is where the gasket leaks. The shop talk me in to letting them fix it. looks like my truck will be a Guinea pig for removing more than .005.
