The machinest I use is a friend of a close family friend who is basically like an uncle to me. He does cash rates at what i believe to be reasonable, he rebuilt my entire slant head, put brand new valves in it, new push rods, new springs, and gave me a set of brand new lifters, shaved the head, and tanked it - for $270 which I believed to be incredibly reasonable. I will ask him if it's the same price regardless to be sure. I don't want to cause a problem overboring, but we'll see what looks safe once the engine is out and I can get a good look. Maybe it has a huge hole through a bore or something? I don't know till I open it up. I think then would be the best time to see what to do maybe. I am still waiting on seeing the landlord. I want to get it before he forgets that he was going to accept $200 for the whole thing.
