how much would it cost roughly to replace the cylinder heads? is it still possible to drive with 1 spark plug half in cause the threads on the cylinder heads are stuffed? anything i can do to a stock engine for less than$500?

Anyway...
an exchange head costs about $410
Ring around a few machine shops and see how much they want
I got mine arranged to replace and reseat valves for about $250 - $300

I can send you a stock big valve head for $150, you can install it yourself easily, or have it installed for a small fee - don't pay $410 that's just crazy!
