Block is ready, cleaned, brushed and all specs checked. Everything is
within factory specs (except cylinders which are 0.030 over). Deck is
within specs as well.
Crank is polished and they say it's in good shape, good specs.
All for about $60. I'll be picking it up Monday.
The heads are costing me $256 to get back.
They did a total refresh, clean, new seals, check specs, etc.
They found one bent valve. That actually surprised me. I checked all
the pushrods and they were fine. It took them a few days to find a
like-for-like replacement valve.
The valves I have in the heads are one piece stainless with a flat
face. Apparently from what they told me, they were made originally by
Sealed Power. They have a -flat- face on them. That was the problem.
All one-piece valves they get today are dished, not flat. They
found one though and got me all set up. I'm hoping to pick them up
this afternoon.
