OEM headgasket + oem head studs + OEM rod bolts + OEM rod bearings.
My headgasket went this past race, 160k miles and the last 14k have been track only. If stock shit can last that long even during racing, why do you need anything more? I have gone down the road with "built" motors, hence why I am in a class with stock ones.
Only one simple, cheap option = OEM refresh.
My head, like yours, is I think not trashed. Buy an OEM refresh head from VAC for $899, sell your complete head without cams/cam trays for $300, and you are only out of pocket 599 + tax. I will be headed up to the junkyard to pick up some core heads, if you would like to pull out a core head for $100 instead of the $599 that VAC wants.
I will then be headed to VAC in the next 2 months to pick up that head, if you want to order one as well and I can pick it up.
I have the tools on order from ebay, so you can borrow them.
