They look decent, just get it cleaned professionally before you assemble. Then you can really see any imperfections.

I just recently had mine rebuilt. They looked fine to me but the machine shop found damage elsewhere.

Take it to any local Napa. Thats where I and a few others have had some machine work done.

I got a 3 angle valvejob, new seals, guides, and a hot tank for less than 225.

This was also on a mitsubishi 4g63 head.

On a honda, it is usually about 20-50 less.

I dont have this head - Im looking to buy it.
I think for the price that it is (not telling! ) its worth it. They do look ok, and even if not I can afford to replace them at the price of the rest of it
