okay now i know that i do not post much here... but i'm in need of money
so here it is
i have a KA24DE head that has been race ported with new valves, spring, and retainers
now here's the catch... yes there is a catch, i tried installing this head on my motor, however after eliminating every other possibility i found out that for one of two reasons the valves are not seating properly [resulting in little to no compression in the cylinders, which is the reason it's not currently installed on my motor]
so, it is eaither that the valves are not seating properly [doubtful because the machine shot that did this does nice work, however still is a possibility] or that the valve buckets need to be correctly shimmed keeping the valves closed when they should be

so here's the deal, i would like $400 for this head [plus shipping if i have to ship it]
think of it this way, you are getting ~$700 worth of machine work and parts for $300 off
i'm located in chicago area,

the ONLY reason that i'm selling this and not fixing it is because i'm moving to Seattle in less then a month and i have to wish to pack this... [also have no time to fix it, install it on car, etc etc]
thanks for looking
