Default has anyone used this head

Ok so couple of cam journals in my head got ruined. So I began the start of looking for a new or used head on HT and Ebay and came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-H...Q5fAccessoriesHas anyone used or bought one. How was the quality, did it perform well as stock or better?
I was thinking of getting one and trying it seems i have all other parts to make a complete head including upgraded valve train, valves and what not. Any info and feedback would be great.

Would you really buy an eBay head for your motor? I dont trust eBay coilovers or even short shifters. Why would I trust an eBay head? If its cheap and on eBay, its junk.

I would try to find a stock used one. Complete used b16 heads go for around that...

I wouldn't trust that. If there are any imperfections in the casting or machining (which is a high possibility since it's an eBay knock-off) your motor is going to run like crap. If they're selling a new head for that cheap, it couldn't have cost them very much to make it. That means they most-likely used cheap processes and/or materials.

I think you're better off buying and OEM head from Craigslist.
