Defective head?
What are some signs to look for in a defective head? I bought a b16 head from a ht member (jdmtuner4life) And i wasnt impressed with all in the quality. Head was pretty much bare. I paid for complete head,got head,cams, valves,springs and retainers and a few plates to seal the cams down. Alot is missing,but im probably just going to roll with it since there is nothing i can do now. But im going to be using this head on a crvtec plus turbo,and i dont want to use something thats all fucked up, what can i check to see if its defective.

Maybe its just me, but if I were building a setup (and i did) I would replace everything I could.
Have the decking checked by a machine shop.
Replace the valve seals and even the valves themselves if youre suspect.
Valves are easily checked for their straightness when you pull them to do the seals
