Hey there A folks. Anyone have recommendations for a machine shop around the Charlotte area to get my cylinder head surfaced? I asked the machinist at work if he could do it but he said that it wasnt bad enough to throw it on the bridgeport. He said that it would only need about .001-.002 shaved. It really doesnt feel or look that bad but there are some low spots from where the gasket was that i am not comfortable leaving alone. Also for a good little laugh.... I popped the head off to find a little skeleton of a gecko on the #3 piston. perfect and in tact.
