Dick, Those nice clean and shiny heads look great. Did you happen to get a few shots just as you removed them to show the damage? If so, those would be great to see as well.

Here are a couple of pictures of the heads for my 68 after inserting the hardened valve seats in the exhaust valves. All the valves are new and shiny here, so the seats are a little hard to see, but if you look closely at the exhaust valves (the smaller valves), you'll see a bright ring around them; these are the inserts. I apologize for the black paint - I promise I will paint them the right color before I install them!
