    Question Head/engine reco place in SA

    Hi,

    I am after some recommendations for a place to freshen up my 2tg twincam head in SA.

    I am not after a race spec head, just a crack test, change over of old seals, inspection and possible replacement of parts such as valves etc and a clean/acid dip if needed.

    I'd prefer someone who has worked on these heads before and also any ballpark figures on how much i would expect to pay on a basic freshen up.

    I will also get the block cleaned if they can do this.

    Thanks,

    Pete

    Adelaide Cylinder Heads on Port road, is who I use consistently.

    Cost is usually very competitive, just get a quote over the phone and then drop of the Head that afternoon, as they sometimes do under-cut their set prices depending upon various factors.

    Cheers and + rep for you. I called them all and got some rough prices. There is a bit of fiddly time consuming work to be done with the shim under bucket style of head. I will go a couple of them and hopefully have it done sometime soon.

    Cheers
