I'm doing some feeler measurements on the cylinder head.. specs show .006 is acceptable. I meet that. But a .004 feeler will just barely slide through to the center. Going to see if I can get a quote from a machine shop tomorrow to do the flat head. If the price is reasonable I may go for it.
If I can't justify it with a good $400 engine sitting in my garage I may consider swapping the heads.
Or leave it as-is.. throw head gaskets on and check if I get compression back. If the book says .006 is ok I may just take their word.
