i wouldn't take the chance, i'd buy a new head, esp. if it's a high HP car... just the tiny'est crack can be catastrophic to your motor...

Get it fixed. I had a piston shatter on a motor 8 years ago and tore up the head. I got it fixed for $40 and it is in use to this day.

Yikes, that is cheap. They rewelded the chamber and machined for $40? Included a new surface for both heads as well? LMAO if someone asked me to do it for that much.

YES it can be fixed... Give Jeff Naiser with NRC a call


I dropped a valve in my SBC and it beat out the seats, I thought my 4k heads were trash. I pulled my motor down at the track so he took the head to his shop and when I picked up the head it looked like a brand new head. You could not even tell which cylinder was damaged.
