What is the situation with the one you have?
Keep an eye on ebay. Decent J-heads get listed once in awhile, and you can always message sellers regarding potential availability.

Tiny cracks radiating from the spark plug hole are common and usually not a problem. If it is a serious crack it can be fixed.
