THE ONLY WAY TO TELL IF THE CYLINDER HEADS ARE BAD IS BY REMOVING AND INSPECTING THEM.(NO ONE IS THAT GOOD AS TO BE ABLE TO TELL WITH OUT LOOKING) THE NORMAL PROBLEMS THAT YOU GET THAT ARE CYLINDER HEAD RELATED ARE NOT ALWAYS DUE TO A BAD CYLINDER HEAD.

Is it a good idea to put the heads from a 1979 305 60cc on a 1969 350 block?
putting 305 heads on a 350 will work.you have to chamfer the edges on the combustion chambers because the 305 has a smaller bore.If you leave the sharp edges you will have bad engine knocking,probably causing damage.You will probably increase compression ratio by about a point or so doing this swap also.The 305 has smaller valves and passages which is good for torque,but engine will probably not make good power above 5000 rpm.This engine would probably do well in a pickup truck,or daily driver worried more about good gas mileage instead of performance.350 heads will not work on 305 though,305 bore too small for big valves.
What will the heads have to do with a 350 Chevy smoking and using oil?
Valve guides and/or valve seals can be worn. Allows oil to get into the combustion chamber.Oil consumption and smoking are signs of either bad piston rings or bad valve guides/valve seals.A compression check on each cylinder can help determine which.
How do you know if the clutch cylinder on a 97 suzuki sidekick is bad and it is not the clutch?
After you have located the clutch slave cylinder, have someone depress the clutch pedal. You should see the piston of the slave cylinder extend somewhat. If it does not, either the slave cylinder is bad, or the master cylinder, or, there is not enough brake fluid in the system for it to operate properly. Check the level in the master cylinder. If the slave cylinder is leaking profusely, it is probably bad.
