OK 9 thousandths in between cylinders 5 and 6 and then between 4 and 3, 7 thousandths and 2 and 1, 5000 thousands is pretty bad especially when i can see daylight under the straight edge only in someplace and a very trashed head is pretty dam bad.
That's not really bad at all. We have 2 heads at the shop right now that were worse than that and they'll be machined and re installed.

It may have overheated, but virtually every head you pull will be warped. About 5 out of 10 will have cracks in the valve area and most never result in issue but some customer choose a reman head. If the block was in fact warped I'd have just pulled it, have the block decked and install a thicker gasket!

yes the block needed to be decked so with the engine only having 289k i decided to by a short block with only 182k miles on it and bought and milled a whole new head. I know that mostly all heads are some what warped and crack and most of the time. My cracks were from over tightening the injectors i think and i could see the engine was over heated since the belt was melted to the pulley and idler barring

800 dollar short block is a pretty dam good deal especially since it had 100,000 miles less than the other engine.
