    I have heard that if you rebuild a head, you also want to do the lower
    half or you will blowout the rings(not sure if that is the exact term).
    I have heard this from many sources, but have never actually heard of
    anyone having problems from doing just a head. Is this just a machine
    shop rumor to spend more money? I plan on doing the rest of the engine
    in the not too far future, so I see no harm in doing just the head now.
