Curt,

If your head on the Midget is still free of cracks or not bent then it's 
worth it to take it off and do a valve job or give it somewhere for such 
an overhaul. 
I called up a place here in Boston that wanted to bill me for such a work 
something like $120 and a junk yard wanted to have $175 for a Midget 
head. Even if the shop still is going to add some valves on the cost I 
think that after such a job you know what you have and don't buy maybe 
another crappy head.
