Help need new heads where to go?

So I found out my heads are cracked in my 01. Im having trouble finding any good replacements in my area. Does anyone have any recommendations on a place to get remanned heads?

O'Reilly shows they have them for $485.99 each, remanned, and from the picture it looks as though all valves and springs are installed.

There are probably a lot of other places to get them, that's just the first result that came up on Google.

You aren't, IMO, going to find a crate engine at that price point. It's like $4k to rebuild one on your own.

Wow, both heads are cracked? What would cause that?

Is it Blackwater on the east coast? If so, there are posts here on them and from what I recall it was not that great.
