Good day went bad

Was hauling some stuff to the dump Thursday and on the second run my truck started running bad.Had a bad spark knock and a miss.So babied it bad home started check things out.Went to a Friends house on Friday so we could figure whats up with my truck.Well the bad part is we figured it was a blown head gasket.So Sat.me and the kids dove in.So it torn apart.Started checking the head and come to find out it is Cracked by the intake valve.I said dang could it get any worse.So I can a friend to see if he had a set of heads.So I went over to his house pulled a set of heads off another motor.Went home and started cleaning.Sunday started lapping the valve and was half wy threw the first head and guess what 2 cracked in the exhaust area of the head.I said do what give me a break.two set of heads and both has cracks in them.My friend didnt have any other heads and been call other friend to find another set.And know it is Tuesday and still no heads.So the point is it can get alot worse.I worse part is that the only vechiel we have.Anyone close by have a good set of heads?Sorry for the rant.
