I replaced cylinder head, head gasket. New gasket but a used head. It had 2 burnt vaulves that I replaced with two good vaulves from the old head. It run good for about 3-4 months, then it started idling rough so I took the cadallittic converter off and it was clogged. Could it be bunt vaulves or maybe the cam wore out not opening the vaulves all the way? What would you do?
