I just got a email from Len Hoffman today. He is focused on producing new Heads, not rebuilding used ones anymore (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Every time i do a search, it always leads to LEN. Who can I send my 2.0 heads to now?? I need to get on this 2056 build. any other recomendations??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Rimco does good seat installations but not finish work.
The only person I have found to do work worth a hoot on used castings is Adrian at Headflow Masters, but don't expect anything other than standard work even on ports. Used castings are getting older and older every day, I can't believe it took Len as long as it did to pull the plug on used casting work. I've been 100% new castings since 2004 and never looked back. Between cracked castings, stripped exhaust studs, stripped plug holes and "idiot modifications" the days of producing a top quality. Set of heads from used castings are over. |

The only person I have found to do work worth a hoot on used castings is Adrian at Headflow Masters, but don't expect anything other than standard work even on ports. Adrian Audirac - Headflow Masters, here in North County San Diego (Vista), is who I was going to recommend. My friends in the buggy community have been using him for years for hipo TI and TIV builds. The heads on my McMark 2056 are from him. When I picked up my motor from Mark, and I asked him who did the heads, I was surprised to hear him say Adrian at Headflow Masters. I always considered him good, but didn't realize he had that much of a following... Even Jake gives him an honorable mention. Headflow Masters - 760.727.1827 |
