Hi jordan,
I took the head to a shop and he said though its easy to bore out the valve seat and install a new one, it is unlikely to be cost effective. He expects to have to remove both exhaust valves seats, as the non-chipped one has had the aluminum of the head swedged up tight against it, so he's worried about it being cracked. Then theres the question if the valves are still sound, given the beating they got. All in all, his cost to fix it up and still leave be worried if i left a ticking time bomb in there was damn close to the $360 cost of a brand new head. So... thats in the mail currently. Surprisingly, the cylinder was still totally fine.

Replacing the piston, rings, and the head. So.. now ive got a spare cam cover, cam and rocker arms, perfectly fine. Anybody need em?
