So I used the block chek today to determine if my head gaskets were blown.... Lucky me, it appears they are! :doh: Only 80K on the ol gal.
I called a local powerstroke shop who informed me I would most likely need new heads since 90% of the ones they have seen are cracked, they can't mill them because they are at min spec from the factory (incorrect statement). Now the question is..... should I take them to be magnafluxed before looking into new ones? If they are not cracked how much should I have them milled (max milling).
If I do have to buy new heads any feedback about the following?
- OEM Ford heads at $1250 each
- Liberator Performance heads at $700 each
- Odessa heads at $555 each
Pros/Cons/Opinions all welcome!
Thanks
