So, can this be repaired or is it even worth repairing and I look for different heads?

The valves are somewhat mushroomed I had to file them a bit to get them out. The valve guides have pretty sizable side load wear.



Those iron heads are a dime a dozen , I'd start with another set, what part number heads do you have ?


running up my post count some more .
