I have a friend who might possibly have a warped right head....a while ago his 98 T/A over-heated when he was driving, the belts fell off...but there's a stain on the block where coolant came out of the gasket....but cured its self....would that hurt much perfomance...its not too bad of a warpage, and i know it won't get any worst....thanks for the help in advance =)

What makes you think a head has warped? Is the performance still the same as before? (e.g, is the engine trying to tell you something here?)
Has the coolant level dropped? Have you used Blok-Check for diagnosis? Comp' test on ALL 8 and a leakdown on all 8? Post what the info says, and we can see what it should be..
