Default Pitting in Heads

Hi All,

When I took off one of the heads on the replacement engine due to a corroded Head Gasket, I noticed this pitting after cleaning the combustion chamber and valve area. Will this be a problem or once I put the new gaskets on, will it address the pitting?

The only part that matters is having good metal for the head gasket to seal against. Those look fine.

You heads look just fine. Mine were WAY worse and car is running great almost a year later.

No boost right?
Yea I agree, as long as the fire-ring circle is not pitted those heads will be fine.
