Nah man haven't checked it. My current plan is to get the heads dropped off at the machine shop when I'm home next month and then drop the truck and all the parts at a shop in january if I have the cash

I hear ya. The one head has the 8 thread chambers, the other is 4. So you may want to look into getting certs, or just make sure to torque them.

If your new setup is boosted or higher compression you'll want the 8 thread plug holes. You spit one out easily.
