    All of those divots are gone, what kind of gasket would I have to use, and more importantly does this mean the head can not be decked/resurfaced?

    Also adding that I'm on a huge budget as far as getting the car up and running. I was told by Mark D tuning (I believe that's what it's called) that I CAN use the stock injectors, stock IM, TB, and everything. I just need to swap the heads, and retune (tune which he sells).
    Anyone else have more experience with this?

    since i cant see the divots in your pic or a good pic of the head look at these:

    885 vs AMC heads by Eric Berger, on Flickr

    in this pic. the back head is the 885 head. notice the divots in it. (bottom left, bottom right and top center) once those have been worn flat then you have to use the thinker gasket.

    On the AMC head there is no indication.

    Before I begin, Picasa killed my pics.

    Check the water passages










    Can this be saved?
    Head is for an 885i, M20B25, right?
    I have a 325es M20B27, doing the swap for the car.

    I'm not sure if the head has to get decked, if it does what are the tolerances? Meaning how much should the machine shop remove?

    Any advice?
