head replacment question.
i have a 98 dohc neon w/ a little over 160,000 miles on it and the vavlues got knocked by the pistons and bent the vaulves when the timing belt broke. all but 3 of the vaulves are good and i have had the idea of swapin the whole motor w. a srt-4 motor but i am kinda tight on money and i was wondering if it would be cheaper and easier to replace just the vaulves or the whole head?? plz help thank you

RE: head replacment question.
I am thinking that if I am puttting in new valves that I am going to have to have the valve seats cut. Or am I going to be able to just put them strait in. I am figuring it would be cheaper to get a new head then buy new valves and have the valve seats cut.
Thanks for the info

RE: head replacment question.
you can just put the new valves in.....
as for the exhaust manifold, if it just has a hairline crack then thats normal....everyone that i have ever removed was like that...
i have a nice loaded DOHC head with 90,xxx miles on it sitting on a shelf in my garage
