Pulled a 327 down the other day to get ready for a rebuild. Looking over the heads I have noticed a few head bolt holes that show some slight damage. I see quite a bit of this typical damage to the holes on other heads, just wondering if this is something serious enough to be concerned with. I will have the heads magged if I decide to use them.

Thanks for your opinions.

I would buy some flat, thin, steel AN washers and install them under the head bolts and forget about it..

I agree with Mike. Hard washers under the bolt heads. I would get a set of ARP head bolts for aluminum heads. They come with hardened washers and grease to put between the bolt head and washer for torquing.

Thanks all.....not sure about which way to go. Might just do trick flows and sell these heads.

Do the tfs 175 double humps, those arent worth sinking $ into anymore.
