Any advice on how to proceed is appreciated. ThanksShawn Wright

Hagar sez ----- Shawn  RELAX   all is not lost.    ----post pictures of crack in
swirlchamber insert and head in general  ----   numbers in casting etc.

It is common practice to drill a small hole at the end of the cracks to stop them from 
spreading.

Very important :    Ask how much was shaved off.

More on this as soon as you post pictures.

Hagar.

PS : it takes a good Barber to shave aluminium heads with fancy alloy inserts.   Grooves across
head is NO PROBLEMO   ---I can help you there.
