Just bought a pair of 69 Windsor heads, Help.

You could always go the cheap route, and not spend tons of money on rebuilt stock heads...


Dont replace the valve seats. Deal with it, maybe even add some lead-imposter fuel additives.

Rockers, get the roller-TIP (not roller rocker) and deal with the pedestal mount non-adjustable studs. With under .500" lift, you wont need HD valvesprings, and no pinning (drill and dowel pin) the stock rocker studs.

Port the "tonsil" (the EGR boss) out of the exhaust port. Just grind it flat to the contour of the port.

Voila, done! My freind ran "my" heads (before I bought them) that way for a few years successfully.

[EDIT]
My point: You bought $150 heads. Unless the valve seat are shot, put them on and run the $150 heads. If you are going to start dumping money into the heads, go elsewhere. You can find nice aftermarket heads for the price you'll spend getting some stockers cleaned up.
