So apparently I am rebuilding my 1983 Ram 50 with the 4d55. I will be posting many questions.

I pulled the head, and just about everything else, and it is cracked. So, I'm looking for a new head. There are plenty on eBay for a variety of prices, some bare and some with valves, cam, etc.

Does anybody know if there is a better or more reputable supplier?

Should I buy a bare head and transplant parts or buy one ready to go? I heard that the aftermarket cams are junk and that rollers are the way to go. Any thoughts?

Also, I have been advised to get an actual Mitsubishi head gasket. I got a guy willing to order a full gasket set from Japan for me for $375. Thoughts?
