So, yesterday I should have just stayed in bed. Really, I could have saved myself a ton of $$ and time. But I didn't. Basically I spent the day taking one shortcut after another and making a small problem progressively bigger. Long story short, I cranked my motor over w/o validating that I had the timing correct by spinning it by hand and I, at a minimum broke a couple of lifters. Here are some pics. Note how chewed up the head is.
Question 1: Do you think this head is ruined (with how chewed up it is)
Question 2: Is there an upgraded (aluminum?) head I should slap in while I'm here?
Question 3: What are the best brand lifters/valves?
TIA...
