Hey Dave what are you having done to your head? I was mainly concerned with the pistons and rods that I don't know what should be done with the head. I'll be taking the engine out myself. Dino passed the force on to me and I believe I can do it. I saw it only took you a few days to get the kit. How much boost are you expecting to run after the rebuild?

Where are you getting the machine work done at? I am looking for a reputable shop to do mild port and bowl clean up and a good 3 angle valve job.

Let me know on a price for a mild port job with a 3 angle valve job. Also see what they charge to do thermal coatings on the combustion chambers.
