Are CB street eliminators good heads? They have 42x37.5 valves. What would be a good price. What if there are crack between the valve guides? Is that common and still safe?

I got lucky and found a set at a show for $400. but they were brand new, never been used. I would walk away from ANY VW head that is cracked. Good luck, Todd

How old are they? Early on CB had some castings come throught that were soft and will let the seats get pounded into the heads (dont ask how I know :? )

With the flow that they are getting out of the 044's, why not stick with something that wouldnt be a gamble?
