Default Any 243 Cylinder Heads in the Portland area?

Does anyone know where I might find a pair of low mile 243 heads in the Portland area? Any leads would be appreciated. Thanks Mike

Thanks for the offer. I would like to find a pair closer to home. Besides, shipping heads cannot be a fun experience? I am not desperate at this point, just planning for the future build with my little LS1 daily driver. I think these heads are in high demand for engine builders?

There's a shop off Sandy Blvd/Marine Drive in Troutdale that keeps these on hand. I picked up a set last year. I will try and see if I can locate their number.

799 heads will also work. Probably easier to find?
