where those flanges are that sit next to the head of motor, there is like this much between these 2 lines of weld/build up cant tell what it is tonight, just took her off and looked and left for awhile but tommorow ill look more at them and post a pic, but this is how much weld or whatever there is, is this normal? | | abt that much of a weld, so, was it already ground down before, or is that about right? || the second pipe off the header had that much the one had more then the other.

make sure you replace the head gaskets or w/e there called that go in front of the headpipe if your going to keep takin that off i noticed they were beat when i took it off

I think your talking about the inside of your head pipe? well if your talking about the inside welds you can grind them out i did it to mine their was also weld spatter in mine so i just ground them out and replaced the copper gaskets.That is normal its left over from the factory.

You don't grind on the head you grind on the header pipe
