Choosing Heads
I am looking to buy some heads, I found a set for $1000 and I want to know if they are a good deal. The are ported patriot 243 59cc with comp cam double springs. Will these heads make good power and are they a good price? Also how should I go about choosing heads, I plan on going naturally aspirated.

Are they new? If the heads are flat, the guides aren't worn, and the valves seats/valves are good that seems like a good price. With a tight combustion chamber like that, you're going to want some duration with your cam, and definitely check piston to valve clearance.
