Default A cracked head

Self-explanitory subject I got 2 cracks on RH side between the valves on cylinders 2 & 8. So im gonna see if i can get it repaired and see how much it cost$$$. But if its to expensive and better just to get another head. My problem is I got a 93 so my exhaust ports are bigger so I can't slap a 94-01 head on there without losin powerright? id have to replace both if I couldn't find another 92-93?

According to the parts catalogs (which are available here) the part numbers for the 1992-1996 cylinder heads are the same.

you are thinking of the exhaust manifolds. The 92-93 exhaust manifolds were bigger, the shrink costed the 3.9 five horsepower and the 5.2 a little more. The heads are the same.
