Head Work Picture Diary
Well I started Thursday but just got some pictures today. I'm going to port-match these heads and do a valve job, then polish the combustion chamber and intake/exhaust ports. When I'm done I'm going to buy a cam, lifters, pushrods, 1.6 roller rockers, and new springs and retainers. Then I'm going to swap these heads with the stockers and install the cam and new valvetrain.
So anyway this will be a little picture diary to show my progress.
