help with a new cylinder head?

[benjamin]

Hi guys. New to this site but not new to jeeps. I have a 00 jeep Cherokee that recently blew the head gasket and cracked the head (yes, the dreaded 0311). The last thing I want to do is install a reman that has been welded in the typical spot. That being said in having a rough time finding much info on a new head. Has anyone had any experience with king cylinder heads or Alabama cylinder heads? I'm unable to find much in the way of reviews on either and I'm hesitant to spend 500+ on some company that has an unknown reputation. I appreciate any suggestions. Thanks for your time
