Robert, The new AMC heads, unless AMC has recently made a change, should have new VW exhaust valves put in. The casting on these heads is better than VW but the valves are not. They commonly have problems under 40,000 miles. I've pulled many AMC heads myself with burnt or sheared valves. http://www.benplace.com/amc.htm
