Should i buy it?

Im planning on buying some used heads from a freind. Its AFR 185cc heads and i think he blew a head gasket recently, would it be safe to buy these heads after that?

Take em to a machine shop and have the heads inspected. Have the deck surface checked for warpage and have them do the dye test to check for cracks. Itll be well worth the money.
