I was mulling over moving the cams and FI system to a 4.7L block and heads and having the heads done...and then realized I was lining myself up for ~$700 and another 15 hours of work.

I understand and if it ran fine before then i would be ok with not going to extra mile. But the stop leak would tell me they thought they had a blown HG and wanted to bandaid it up
Seeing you work on this car makes me want to grab a 928 on the cheap and work on it.
