Only excessive heat will warp the head. Not the case here. I could believe a head gasket. Either way, that is not an entire engine. One of our members burned one of his exhaust valves and did his cylinder head rebuild last weekend for a few hundred bucks. As upallnight points out, if you are at the mercy of an auto repair facility, you are at a disadvantage.
