I read the note that was mentioned. Ken M. seems like such a nice guy
on the phone, he admitted mistakes were made by him in the past he
said he has been selling these engines on ebay without many returns at
all, maybe I am just sucker.

Right now I can't afford to spend $3K on an engine and $1200 for the
install.

I may just go and do the heads for now till I get another job.

What is the worse that can happen?

In another 30,000 miles the heads crack again? I get bad performance
out of it?
