if you want any kind of good heads you need to get new pistons or get yours notched because youll never clear the valves they will smash right into the pistons. your lucky you dont have a problem now

It is not a safe assumption, however if the motor has ran free from crashes, then either A. it has been built right. B. you are one lucky bastard.
