I think im gonna rebuild the orignal head tbh. Keep everything orignal :-)

think i would hold off that decision untill youve stripped and inspected the bent head

im still going to get my head pressure tested even though it came off a known engine

Yeah quite possibly. As you say we aint going to know anything till the orignal head is stripped. As damage could be worse.

Also worth noting that I didn't undo the head bolts in the correct sequence as my plan was to use the other head, so because I didn't do them in the right sequence the head could possibly be warped. Just a heads up

yeah everything will be skimmed and pressure tested before going back together. Thanks for heads up.

Wow, that looks a bit broken. Gonna follow this thread with interest, i'm quite a noob when it comes to the engine rebuild side of things as well, so will be nice to see this documented by someone of my knowledge level.

Yeah its something ive wanted to do for a long time. I have very basic knowledge tbh. I know what I want and I know how to fix some things. But I dont trust or have the confidence in my self so theres a lot of things I dont touch with my own car as its my daily and rely on it. So this one I can take my time and not need it done asap.
