A gentleman just sent me these pic's of a set of PI heads he's wanting to sell. The latter-style cam-cap/girdle is cracked. What would've caused this? I don't see any damage to the cam or valvetrain in that area so the damage was most likely caused while the valve covers were off, or after the head was removed from the car, eh...? What does this mean to the rest of the head (ie: could there be more unseen damage to the head casting)? Can the cam-cap/girdle be easily replaced? I have a spare set of non-PI heads. Can I steal one from the non-PI heads? I plan on swapping cams and valve-springs out of the PI heads. What do you guys think -> Head is trashed or its probably fine?
