Default so yeah im a new guy

so yeah im a new guy, names Ben. so i bought a 94 formula, it was a choice between this a with a bad head gasket and a mustang that had nothing wrong with it. so i made the choice drove four and a half hours to get it last week and ordered a head set. so i pulled one of the heads today and found a mess of sludge and some rust in the bores. hmm well i guess im building the motor this winter.
p.s. if i knew how to upload pics i would but that is an area i suck at
