whats wrong with the head on the truck now? if its warped just take it to a machine shop and get them to shave it, i think it cost my buddy $80 at the most for his 22re head... but for a new head they have them on ebay pretty cheap

Yeah dude, just get the head milled. You could probably bump the compression up a little in the process. And go to http://www.engnbldr.com/ fot the parts.
