Re: Help Me Pick Some Heads For Christmas Present

So I got the Summit heads delivered this weekend and they look pretty good overall. Do you guys have any advice on anything I should be looking for with regards to QC'ing the heads? Also any prep, cleaning, conditioning of the heads prior to install? Of course I'd love to port/polish but that's beyond my skill set and an entirely different question.

My initial inspection has been looking for any casing defects, cleanliness, etc. I did find shavings at the bottom of the rocker arm stud bores left behind from the tap process. Also I noticed one of the intake walls had some tooling marks (see photo), should I be concerned with this or leave as is?
