Opinions What is the cost to fix the 241s These heads only have an hour of run time on them Money is tight right now otherwise i would get the 243s ported but that isnt an option at this point

The heads are 2 years old.. My buddy got the shaft from golen engines he bought a 402 actually i think a 408 iron block from him had to send it back 2 times and when he actually got it running it ran for about an hour.. Fired it up the next day and the pin hole in the intake runner had filled #5 up and boom cracked the block...
The motor was supposed to have stage 2 ls6 heads he got 241s when they took it apart he sent the heads back to golen to check and he sent them back and said they were good to go..
Hell i found the holes just looking in the ports..
I have no doubt that they are patriots .. But very unlikely they would do anything now
