I am going to be sending my 2.0 liter heads out to be rebuilt and I’m looking for recommendations as to who to send them to. I’m budgeting a $1000 when all is said and done, and to spend less than that would be great, but for however much I send I want to get the best heads back I can.
I’ve already inquired with Len Hoffman, who I’d love to have them done by. All new everything, basically a super stock set-up for a little more than I have budgeted, but I can’t wait 2 months to get them back. I spoke with the people at RIMCO and they basically told me nothing over the phone. Their price is cheap compared to Len but their quote does not account for any welding needed (2.0 will need welding) and the only new parts would be new valve seats and guides. Lastly I spoke to Steve at Type 4 parts. Super nice guy on the phone, and very informative as to what they do. Quote was cheaper than RIMCO and that includes some welding and new seats and guides. At this point I’m leaning towards Type 4, but was wondering if anyone has gotten head work from them, and what to expect. Also, are their other places I should be looking into? Thanks guys Samson |
