In my country where gas is $10 a Gallon, (was $5 when Trump was in) we never had mass production large capacity cars. Is this a Diesel or Petrol

Put a straightedge on it with feeler guages to tell how bad it is, people have been doing it for decades.

Heads aluminum, block is cast. The markings on the block are just a stain from the gasket but those heads are definitely bad.

They use a long machinist square. Usually about 1/4 in thick but 2 or 3 foot long.

So you would check the block deck right?? Just because the head has been decked doesn’t mean you’ll get a good seal.

As a mechanical inspector from the precision machining industry I would do it on a surface plate using a dial indicator to sweep the surface. You need three points on the surface to establish the zero reference plane so the indicator will read zero at three designated spots. Two on the same end in the corners and the third on the opposite end central to the head width. Mark these spots with a dot using a sharpie and orientate the head resting on three finger jacks (on the underside of the head)located roughly opposite the marked spots. When you have zero at all three spots then sweep the rest of the surface for the largest departure from the zero reference plane. The total indicator reading is flatness of the surface.

Hard for the home guy to do as most don’t have good straight edge. In my experience heads should just be resurfaced and be done with it
