I had them for him for free.
As it was, I thought there was someone in Troy that was going to pick them up. But, I have not heard.
Let me know what is going on. Not sure I could get to Ed's instantly, but we can work something out, Pentwater is that far.

Dave,
Please accept my apology for not keeping in better touch with you. In speaking with Brent there is some question about the viability of trying to rebuild original FE heads in a cost effective way. I'm trying to determine if I'm better off rebuilding a set of original heads or spending the money on a new set and available the expense (fairly large) of shipping them back and forth, as well as possible valve seats, guides, valves, machining, maganaflux,etc.....
PLEASE know that I am incredibly grateful to you for the generous offer of your cylinder heads. If you are still agreeable I would appreciate it if I could keep that option open while I ask those with far more knowledge than I possess what the best and most cost effective way of getting cylinder heads for this engine would be. It's kind of a curve ball late in the game, I thought the heads I have were ok, only to find out just recently that they aren't suitable for this application. Again, please accept my apology if I didn't communicate effectively with you. Thanks again for you generous offer of the heads. I hope to find out as soon as possible what the guys who actually know what they're doing think I should do. Sorry again, Dave - and thank you so much!
Doug
