The bearing surfaces were within tolerances the valve guilds were good. I had previously had 2 different heads
and my brand new top end rebuild smoked like crazy. With this head all is right and no smokey. While it was missing the exhaust studs that is on me for not checking the photos. All is well as i had spare studs and it did surprise me as it came with the little rubber plug in the oil block off. Most guys dont know what they are and throw them away. Good on the seller. All in all very happy with this purchase. Early Honda parts are getting hard to find as Honda did not use cam bearings and many are damaged. It is a treat to find a good head. All i had to do was clean it up degrease it and lap the valves which i had. Good to go.
