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.

The moral of the story is to #1 choose your engine builder wisely, #2 treat it as a marriage (ie…don’t shop around after getting the product, stay with the builder till death do you part), #3 the chain is only as good as the weakest link, #4 money spent does not always equal et on the track.

For free I’ll also add…don’t eat in a hotel or sleep in a restaurant!
