Its actually a good design - less parts, no pushrods to bend or wear,
yada yada.

get a used set of heads from the junkyard for $50 a pop after
listening to the car.  Also, have you checked aftermarket parts for
your heads?  Might be less expensive than Mitsu parts, though not
always.  Check around!

> ENTIRE friggin 440 didn't even cost more than $135 from the junk yard!

See, I need to find a junkyard with a supply of decent, running
440's.  Up here in CT old dodges (especially trucks) are lifted right
off the flatbed/tow truck right into the squisher.

Though, they have four (not one, FOUR) yugo's in the back.  Can't
imagine why.
