You are to be commended for doing everything on your car. Additionally, qualifying Numero Uno at INDY is quite an accomplishment.…..:):):)

I concur to the "pretty good", I've seen it! Great run at LV Class Finals Brian!

My best guess Professor would be the cost depends on the actual head being serviced. Unless some thing has changed, I was quoted by a great head builder $3500 for 305s to be done.

Thanks Justin, I know it's not for everyone but all of this can be done for the cost of parts, all in for everything on my heads under $1000 I have a old portable Souix valve seat grinder that I works fine, of course the hours add up, 20-40 hours on a set of heads and 20-40 hours on a short block..this includes CC combustion chambers and runners, the only thing I don't do is deck/ mill heads or bore block..

Re: current cost of having good stocker head work?
 

$1000. in parts??

Someone earlier said that $250 per hour was flat rate at a good repair shop and you spent 20 to 40 hours on your heads, wouldn't that add up to $5000. to $10,000. labor??

So, what's the problem with the quotes you are getting??

I was actually in Bowling Green on Saturday to see my granddaughter’s high school play. Man, I sure miss racing but some things in life just aren’t meant to be. I also miss the guy in the Black Stetson !!!!! ::):):)
