Hi folks,

Blast cleaning 20.-
Boring for bigger cylinders 40.- each chamber (70.- a head)
Planing a chamber 30.- (50.- both)
Planing the top 30.-
Full machinig (Boring, planing, blasting) for a head 100.-


A completely cleaned and bored head looks like this:

Holy sh!t man, Ive been looking everywhere for someone who will do this on the cast iron head on my MG! Would you port and polish it for me? Its a fairly basic head. Ill pay you more for this cause its an inline 4 head so bigger obviously, and its cast iron.

Have to see the head. The tools i have a specaly for aircooled vws.

Well the problem is I have to remove the head to give it to you, and for some reason or another, Im told that renders the vehicle somewhat undriveable.

Thats basically what you can expect. If I thought you would be able to do the job I wouldnt have a problem pulling the head off and bringing it to you but Im not going to do that if you cant do it.

The top i can do if you want. the chambers i can't do, because the form is totaly differend from vw heads.

Well what about just polishing it and not porting it? If you just took the roughness off the combustion chamber I think it would make a fair difference. What do you think? Would it be worth doing?

I will ask someone on monday, who do race engines, if he can do it all.

That would be great, thanks!

this guy specializes in all types of headwork and comes highly recommended he`s an english man so i reckon he`s plenty of experience of working with mgs 0539134090 he`s in taghmon wexford

Thanks for that. I gave him a call and had a chat. Certainly something for me to consider down the line, but for now Im spending a lot of money as is and I think the standard head will do the job for a good while yet. The budget doesnt stretch that far just yet.

BTW, i also can bore the block for bigger ccm, not only the heads.
