Turbo head build

so I assume that was with them getting you the valves, and them doing all the work? any porting included?

the magnaflux was included with mine. It was more of an "after check" to be sure the head didnt get ruined by the porting as there are some mighty thin spots in there to avoid, while porting. You grind too much, and the head is scrap metal. There are pictures of band sawed heads around to see where to avoid, as well as lots of threads right on here about the subject.

There was no porting included. How much should a shop charge for cutting bigger valves. My plan was no major porting and to just clean the casting and port the intake and exhaust manifolds. As for the machine shop the only work I would have done is the head resurfaced and maybe cut the valves. I would install the 340 springs and port myself
