plus on cylinder ports 1 and 2 on the exhaust sides I see old oil residue.

I would really like to just take the 1g parts and put them over. I think the 1g head I have is warped because I had a hell of a time pulling it off my old 2.3 block when I blew a head gasket.

im trying to part together parts from 2 bad things and make one half way decent bad thing .

which sounds stupid I know, but I have to get the car there or lose a huge bet made to my 5.0 mustang buddy who was talking shit all year long predicting because its a dsm I wont make it to proving grounds

What was the bet for if you dont mind me asking? If its not that big of a bet then I'd say just take the time amd fix it right even if it means skipping pg1..
