Well heres my situation, the motor I bought about a couple of months ago just took a crap, still have my old motor and the bottom end is going to be built up. Now i only have a limited amount of money to do this build and im sitting here trying to think on what I don't need to spend money on and I remembered that my head was rebuilt about 10K ago and would you guys just use the head again if it was rebuilt that long ago, or would you go ahead and do it all over again? I know for the minimum im going to get it checked for straightness but everything else was done, the valves were all grinded down, new seals and the whole thing. I even got the exhaust side resurfaced and got some exh mani bolt holes helicoiled. What would you guys do in my situation? Thanks....

yeah, you should be just fine, so long as you havent overheated the motor or anything... if you havent had issues with it, my guess is that its still good to go. it wouldnt hurt to check it w/ a mechanics straight edge.
