So, they packed the heard one way and they were damaged. They had to repair the the heads and they shipped them exactly the same was as when first damaged?
Apparently the crates were all broken up.

Let me guess, they dropped it off a speeding truck and claimed it was insufficient packaging so they were not liable for the damage.
Something like that. Twice.
 
I have a few sets of heads if you are in a bind. Two sets right now getting new valves and guides (and port work cleanup), one set of brand new boss heads (no valves/springs). Just in case you get stuck in a corner while yours are sorted out.
If you get to a point where that new set of Boss heads is surplus let me know. I may be interested.

That’s very generous of you Chris, thank you.
I’m just gonna have to be patient, I may whine a little bit, but patient I’ll have to be.

While we're on the subject,I'm looking for an 06ish 3 valve block and heads. I'm going to use a different crank, so all I need is the block.
I just gave one away with forged internals.
