Took my heads to the machine shop and found out one is CRACKED!!

[TDmkr496]

Freshening the motor in my 87 Turbo T, brought the heads to the machine shop and they informed me that one of my heads is cracked between two valve springs. Is this common on these motors?

Does anyone have a decent set of used heads?

I have a set. Rebuilt set and a set that was ported.

Cracked between valve springs. I've never heard of that with 8445s.

No, it was cracked between two valve springs, it looked like it was a casting flaw that just developed into a crack.

I am located in Auburn Alabama.

Can you PM me some prices?
