    That's correct, except this particular Head (Non-Toyota) hasn't been done by anyone let alone taken to the extreme so its going to be a one-off job in every aspect....

    pay him more. pay them enough to do it if they are the only ones you trust, and are willing to wait.

    heck, pay him 50% more than usual
