Wouldn’t there be issues with the PCV system as well?
What about just swapping the valves into the original head, re-lap the valves so they seal properly and they should be fine as long as the head isn't damaged..

i have a friends 96 sohc sitting in my driveway that broke a timing belt.....i figure the valves are bad so he found a head from a 95 for free.....but will a 95 head fit on a 96????
i would of thought it would, but im noticing alot of headgasket sets that are for either just a 95, or a 96-99
i just wanna know before i go through the work of getting the other head.....and i need to know which gaskets to get
