I have a GT6 head with a cracked valve seat between the intake and exhaust =
seats. Would it be worthwhile to magnaflux to determine how deep it goes in=
to the port then pending the depth install new seats. This is on an older r=
ace head that is already ported. I do my own porting and last time took me =
about 80 hours to do. So since I live in the real world with a regular day =
job I am exploring options including time and money. If i can repair this h=
ead at a reasonable cost then I would only need to clean up the port work t=
o match my current engine specs. Any input appreciated.
Thanks,=20
