I bought an '03 head to go on my '03. The head has oversized valve seats along with a few other things. I took it to my local machine shop to make sure everything was ok before I installed it. He found that the head has a few small cracks between the valve seats. The worst is on the #2 cylinder. It goes between an intake valve and an exhaust valve. The next is on #1 it is smaller than the other but is in the same place between an intake and exhaust valve. Will it be ok to install? I have heard this is normal due to the heat these engines make. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
