Its the never ending story with this car. So the steering box was turning out to be quite costly now I have another issue. I have been having issues with my heads since I first bough this motor. I bought my 383 block and heads freshly assembled. Turns out I had one truck head one passenger car head, major issue. I then purchased a pair of 906 heads and had them redone. End of issue right, wrong the heads had crooked bolts which caused issues with the header and header gaskets sealing properly. So the machine guy said his bad and fixed the issue. Or so I thought. My motor gets assembled and all is good to my knowledge. I noticed I was having some leaks and wasnt sure what all was going on. Well turns out the shop drilled the hole that had the crooked bolt thus damaging the head further and the spot where the bolt was at was why I was leaking. Back to the steering box now, after realizing it would be really difficult to get to i e headers battery tray and other stuff had to come off he discovered that the head had to reworked again. That puts me in a really tough spot. First if the machine guy cant fix my head that means I have to either buy another 906 head and get it reworked. or I could put my stealth heads I was saving for my 440 build. I am posting to see what you guys think would be the best course of action and see what damage will using the heads in this motor do? All I know about the block thats in the car now is its a forged crank and flat top pistons and it has less than 3k on this motor. I dont know if this is the right section for this but what should I do guys? Any advice will be appreciated. And to make it worse the shop that was fixing my car now left the car jacked up so gas leaked from my gas tank under my paint and now I have a bubble in my paint so I have to get most of my car repainted!! This sucks!
