Check the net. I bought a rebuilt head a year and a half ago for $400. Between by and new parts and machining your gonna spend the same money anyway.

Well I ordered a head off ebay
270 shipping included and return shipping for the core
I couldnt find my casting number but I have the intake and exhaust manifolds for the other head I have so I got one to match that
My local shop wanted about 250 just to recondition a head if I found one at the jy
So I think I did good

Nice! I don't know if this is true in your case but most of the time they will only take a core that has a matching cast number. So be sure to check that out bc that could be huge unseen costs for you. Most of the ebay ones work that way.

that's great, Justin. i'm glad you found one so cheap. If they make it for our motors; I would go on sumitracing and see if you can find a performance commetic gasket that is thicker than stock. It will bump the compression up alittle, thus giving you more power.

while ur there, gasket match head and intake. that will bump you up even more.
Now is the time to do it while she sits.

Also, I don't know if the head bolts are torq-to-yeid. but I would buy some arps'

Ok just wanted to make sure you were aware of that because I guess these company's know the 0331 head is junk. So you can imagine there are alot of people ordering heads with different casting numbers and then trying to send their cracked 0331 in as a core.

Ok like I said I just wanted to make sure you were aware. Send them back another 7120 and you'll be good to go.
