Cyl Head Damage?

I've got a set of factory iron heads that I was planning on using and I noticed that they have some chipping around the tops of some of the bolt holes, it seems like maybe a washer under the bolt cap might be needed. Can someone suggest something?

Thanks

That's pretty common.... they'll gall right there.

Just use head bolts with washers when you put them back together.
