So I may have messed my heads up
Take a look at this...some damn fool dropped his cylinder head on a bolt and put a sizeable chip in his combustion chamber....
Should I worry about it? If so, how do you folks recommend I fix it? I have a mig welder...if JB weld will work I'll grab some... let me know!

Where exactly? I can't see it clearly. A good machine shop should be able to assess and/or repair easily.

It's right on the edge of the chamber about the same width of the fire ring on a head gasket. Agree with getting a shop opinion-if it's not too deep they can mill it. If it's deep both heads MIGHT need milling.
