Len didnt respond to my email and now he is closed this week.

What would a typical refurb cost on 2.0 heads?

I just had Al at AJRS redo the heads on the 2.0.....$750 using used (in spec)valves.



edit: That was flycutting, drilling and installing insert on one plug thread, new guides, two used valves, checking springs and valves for tolerances, and bead blasting.

Your thread heading reminds me of a joke...


I have heard of heads being refreshed for as little as $500 and up to $1000

Mine cost me a Mercedes station wagon.

Let's see. Been married 3 years now.
So far, a diamond ring, new house, VW Beetle, Ski Boat, ......

right there with you and SteveL...LMAO sorta

Was that in Arizona, where they take your car when you get caught!?!

Still young so only a few things with diamonds in them.

I will however pay out the ass for a good head job.

Len did mine a few years ago. New springs, valves, retainers, guides, flycut, etc. Seems like it was $800 or so. Worth it knowing it was done right.

I just remember the punchline being that in the right (or wrong depending on your point of view) neighborhood a good head job can cost as little as a swig off your whiskey flask...

...must be some sort of California thing.... "not that there is anything wrong with that"

No, not a California thing. They have toothless alcoholic homeless women everywhere...

more than half of what i had and still taking.

Half of 4" is only 2" Troy i wouldnt be braggen......LMAO

A Hand Job is cheaper

Now how to tell if you got a good head job?No how,,,, When you have to pull the sheets out of your ass

Come on Jon!!what part dont ya get ,, dont make me spell it out ..Lord know i cant spell anyway haha

Depends on the "service provider" and the extras.....

The head job is cheep, its the f**king lawyer's invoices that will cost you.

I think we are completely off topic....

We are talking about getting our cylinder heads refurbished.

Up to $1500.00 if they're cracked, and speaking of crack, as little as $10.00 some places. A disgusting fat old man neighbor told me that the going rate in Bakersfield is a can of gold spraypaint. OOOHHH yuck!

"True love is never more than 50 bucks away..."

In the 60's it was .50 at neuevo laredo but it was hard to look at the one giving it.

ohh bad mental thought..

what did you expect from a bunch of smart ass` ,,,with a title like that ..LMAO

Entertainment.

and your wife tells me i still have twice what you have..

there is no set price because...
what do your cores look like?
a basic valve job assumes your valves are re-grindable, studs are good, no bad threads, valve seats are good.
new valves are 20 bucks each(+-)
welding is charged per crack
new seats plus teh cost to install them

virgin, non cracked non fly-cut to death head cores are RARE!!!

expect to pay at least $1000 a pair

springs?
valve guides?
$$$

WORD !!

$20 bucks down in VA...you gotta go behind the stop and pump in richmond...

Rich

Not a California thing. You aren't that far from Over the Rhine, although I suppose whiskey might not be the preferred payment method.

one option I posted awhile back
