Interesting im wondering how much they would charge to do a full rebuild. What exactly is entitled in a full rebuild usually?
I imagine im going to need new valve seals and i def am going to need to have the head welded and reground or w/e.
You may be able to remove the pitting when the head is decked...depends on how deep. Just compensate for the thickness removed with a thicker MHG...Cometic will make almost any thinkness you would need.
Head Job:
- Decking (kinda goes unsaid)
- 3 angle valve at minimum
- New seals
- Check valve guides (usually don't have to be replaced)
- Check valve spring compression specs...replace if necessary
- Check cam journals for scoring...may need to be replaced
- Make sure the cam retainers are torqued properly...do a check yourself!
- Optional gasket match port/polish on both the intake & exhaust sides. There is a lot of material removed on the exhaust side when doing this...runs the expense up quite a bit. I'm not a big fan of excessive material removal close it to the valves...blending in from the gasket match with a good polish is good enough on this head for over 500 HP.
