454cid
Sooper Pooper
Several years ago.... 10 maybe? I bought a set of used Vortec 454 heads and had them gone through by a local shop. Then I let them sit. They've had rodents running over them, with the associated acorns, and are kind of dirty and have some surface rust on the topside (I haven't flipped them over yet). Can they simply be scrubbed and hosed off and be ready to go, or do they need to be disassembled and thoroughly cleaned before use? If I were working on an engine, I'd probably take the hose to them and not worry about it, but I'd like to sell them, and want to market them honestly, but don't want to over state flaws and give up money, either.
I don't have the receipt in front of me..... I need to look for it. I think a few valves were replaced, and I don't know what else. They did not shot blast the castings, so even when they came back fromt he shop they still looked used.
