I don't have any heads for sale, but as an FYI (this isn't going to help your valve tap,but I thought I had a valve tap and it turned out to be an exhaust leak):
93-97 LT1 heads are all the same. There are a few cases ( Somewhat common ) for the 93s to shear off the outer bolts on the manifolds. It's said the some of the 93 either had bolts were too long and bottomed out in the heads, or the holes in the heads were too shallow, either case, this allowing the manifolds to twist under the torque of the engine. Over time this weakens the bolts and they break.
If your outer bolts are the one that are broken, an easier fix is to install MAC shorty headers. There are two sets of outer holes on the LT1 heads. The shock headers use the inner set of holes, the MACs use to the outer holes.

Besides the regular exhaust leaks at the head... this is a def. nock. Had my boss look at it today along with a guy from R&L engines and they both agreaa thats its a lifter. Boss told me i should just do a new cam and a set of heads. The heads on the motor now are wasted anyway cuz the guy who had the car b4 me decided just to keep putting bigger n bigger bolts in the heads so the header leaks will go away. Right now i have edelbrock shortys on the car.
