Default Cylinder Head

So when my Speed6 went ZZB, not only did cylinder 4 rod try to escape but the piston smacked the head, sounds dumb but the valves look ok but I have marks where the piston came in contact with the head.

I'm sure that this head could be put back on the engine, but I am not wanting to take a risk in something else happening.

I called around and at this moment the only thing I came up with is a squeaky new OEM one with no cams or shims, which isn't the total end of the world but it sure would be nice just to slam a reman with cams on this thing and go.

So, with that said, I have tried Edge and SP63, any other places you guys and gals could suggest?

Another question is, if I do go with new OEM, has anyone had good luck with Crower Cams or CS camshafts? its only going to add to the expense of this thing but while I'm spending copious amounts of money already I may go all out with friggin aftermarket cams, but I'm not afraid to run used stock ones.

Power goal is 400ish crank HP, it will be my daily driver, planning on a CS turbo.

clearwater cylinderhead might have something. Throw a post in the WTB area as I know there are several people with spares on here.

Personally I'd have yours rebuilt for a tenth the cost. Worst case you'll need new valves in #4 which are like $20 a piece unless you really really tore up the top of the chamber. So figure $500ish for a basic head job, pluss $60-100 for valves and maybe some bowl work. Or find someone like SP63 to do a mild port job while you're at it. If you could post pics that would help, but I'm doubtful the head is trashed.

I will post pictures tonight, maybe I'm just paranoid. I do have access to a head that has bent valves that I'd be more comfortable sending out.

I can't see anything from those photos. I'd bring it to a machine shop and get their opinion. Looks to me a head cleaning and a valve job and you'd be back on the road. Probably less than $200.
