Thread: Total NOOB mistake! (Heads)

There is a hardened valve seat in our heads BTW. If you look closely at the head, you can see them.

He said to magnaflux them it would cost me $150 per head... I told him where to go and how to get there...

Damn that's expensive, I'd call around to a few different places and see what they charge for it. I got them magnafluxed, quick valve job, and painted for $200 total. I didn't have anything else done to them though. My ported heads I brought to someone else, had them fluxed, need new guides since the bronze ones basically fell apart in his hand, and had them decked and that was about $500, including the new guides and seals, they were already ported.
