Put on a new or rebuilt head.  It's more than worth the time and money of 
trying to swap heads and then have to do it all over again.

i pulled the heads off to replace the pushrod tubes and noticed that i have a 
crack on number 3. the bus has been running fine all this time. the crack goes 
from intake to exhaust valves. a friend suggested to put it on the opposite 
side so it is the coldest cylinder in the motor and milk it this year...i'm 
afraid to

does anyone have a dp head for cheap ready to run???

i don't want to cheese it but, i don't want to spend a ton of money.

lemme know

brian

also, what do you think about the milking it idea??? how long would that head 
last? i've pulled motors apart before with cracks worse than that. how long do 
you think it lasted? do i really need a head?
