Buy them on the condition they pressure test ok.
Figure pressure test, surface, serti valve job, guides and seals, they'll be like new.

Aye, theyll likely be okay, BUT you might want to ask a shop if they will in fact clean up via milling alone, since someone will be pressure checking them anyway. Doesn't sound too bad from your description however

How much you paying? You can usually get good heads on Ebay.com for cheap.
