Reply to "So, how bad is it going to be?"

It's easy for us to tell you to remove your starter, or remove you engine, etc but you are the one who will have to make the decision (and deal with the consequences). Removing your head isn't going to be that much harder then removing your starter. If you were idling, who knows maybe just a couple nicks, maybe not. No one knows. Question is also going to fall on what you are doing with the car. Was a tear down in your future plans? Were you planning on doing it next winter? Do you just want to get a few more dirves out of it before you do?

I certainly don't see any reason you have to pull off the second set of heads IF the first set only has a few bumps and scrapes but like I said, that is up to you. We do not bear the consequences of what you do.
