Shipped them my 2.0 heads to be reworked for my 2056 build. They found a crack on one of the spark plug holes and put inserts in all four.

Work was done quite well (according to my mechanic, who'd know better than me) and very reasonable.

I had my heads done there. 1.8l heads built to 2.0l specs. 42x36 SS valves. Seats, guides, 1.7l rockers w/swivel foot adjusters, etc. Even put a the long block together for me.

They do good work. Call Jorge.
