I asked the New Edge group over on facebook for some help, and if any of you are part of that group you know how that goes lol. Anyways I am putting these headers from my 01 motor onto my new Marquis donor motor and don't know if the surface is clean or smooth enough for installation. I tried my best to get decent pictures of the surface's texture. This was after going at it with a air gun and sanding disc.

Assuming you are using a gasket, it is good to go.
