Don't ask me how, but somehow the head that I had rebuilt turned out to be a 2g head. I didn't even realize it until someone else pointed it out to me. My question - is this gonna cause problems? Will the CAS bolt up ok? I niticed how dramatically smaller the ports are, if I port them out will that be just as good as a 1g? Or should I be selling this head and looking for a good 1g head to put on? Will the ARP stud kit I have coming work with this head? Please somebody tell me that I'm not totaly f#$%ed....
And the saga continues...

Well, as near as I can tell from the hour that I've spent researching here's how it breaks down....
2g head has smaller intake runners, a completely different waterneck and thermostat housing, CAS might work from a 1g, and the Cams have a shorter lift.  I'm really at a loss. I'm not sure I can sell this head and get my money back out of it, but I'm getting uneasy about trying to make it work on my motor. I'm about ready to go completely nuts from this project. Help.... please....
