my great aunt and uncle own the place, a pretty well known shop locally as well as plenty of experience. if you decide to go this route let me know, and ill get you set up with them.

- Cracked M42 head with valves, cams and lifters still on.
- Fix the valves on the good head (whatever that would entail).
- Remove the cams/lifters from the cracked head and install on the new head.
- Mill the head, if necessary.
Make sense?
