People can't see inside the ports or under the valve covers so the average guy at the car show would only be looking for the 716 and maybe a date code. So you make him happy or the Judges happy because the dates are close and the heads look stock for the engine.

Deal is the Purest wants 64 GTO/421 heads that have not been modded. correct surface finish in the ports, correct press-in studs, and correct date codes. He will only pay $$$ for those items. But he is after parts that will not detract from the car when he SELLS IT.

For the average car show guy or judge, if it looks good on the outside, it is ok on the inside.

All depends on which person and game they are playing.

What you're saying about the heads makes a lot of sense, Tom...........
Any other opinions regarding value of these 716 heads??
