Herb,All you need is a good valve job and please have them surfaced for piece of mind and then bolt them on, the little loss in compression won't make a difference in your application. Good Luck!,

The good news is detonation will become less of an issue also.

Central Daylight Time, jake4@xxxxxxxxxx writes: Herb, Look at the part number on the heads, located either between the rocker pads or underneath on the head gasket side, the last three numbers you are looking for are 452 or 346. If you have either set then go ahead and put them on assuming they are in good condition, you will not run into any issues.

The361 in my Sport Fury is in need of a valve job. As opposed to going throughthose heads and having the seats replaced and all the other machine workneeded for todays gas, would I be better off using a set of 400 headsthatwere just given to me saving $ in machine work? Or would I run into compression or valve clearance problems?
