got the head back from the machinist
havent seen it myself, gf picked it up
she said its:
"clean and shiny and pretty"

 

lol nice, now post pics!!!!!!!!!!!! or vidzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!

 

lol, will have pics up of the perdy head tonight lol, after a thorough inspection to make sure its happy with me again
then pics during reassembly and vids of it *knock on wood* running

 

you got this dude! just make sure you double check everything and rotate the engine by hand before you start it. if you feel even the tiniest bit of resistance, stop and recheck timing.

 

that i am DEF going to do!!!
im thinking with another experianced buddy around, that if we take our time and double check our steps we should be fine *should*

 

be confident and go slow dont be nervous cause you will be more likely to screw something up.

 

oh i am confident, just cautious

 

what r the expected gains?

 

pics of shiney head?

 

when i get home tonight...was too tired last night after work lol

for all the mods this round vs last dyno im hoping to go from 155whp to 180+whp

 

good luck! that would be pretty damn good for NA

 

Pics of shiny head? sorry had to.Take your time man.you dont wanna do this again.....do ya?

 

NO..i dont lol

pardon the size, but its needed

 

no porting? i still see casting on the exhaust ports, no polishing?

 

no port and polish cause no cash monies
but i may give it a try lol, i ahve an extra head now :P
and when i go to do a full build the engine i pick up will prob be a full one

 

Nice man! perdy!

 

nice! reminds me when i got my 350 back from the machine shop getting bored & hot tanked

 

very purdy lol
i would have liked to port and polish, but alas...that costs money
this was only 60$ after tax
and done at the same shop that the makers of the famous SSC use
