Hi Rod,
Have you excluded piston ring problems by testing the compressions with a squirt of oil in the bores?
Have you checked the torque of the head nuts?
Have you checked your valve clearances and that you don't have sticking valves?
I would suggest all these tests would add to what you know about the situation before you pop the head off.
