| Where you guys go to have your heads check for straightness? In the middle of a head gasket job, thought I might as well have them checked out.

+1 on any of these recommendations. Weaver's did the recent head work on my domestic dynamite and I have no complaints. Bailey did some 440 work for me a few years ago and I was more than pleased. Guys at Full Boar haven't had the chance to do any work for me yet, but I've known them both for many many moons and have many pleased customers. |

| Weaver used to do some work on our boat engine rebuilds. We wont let them touch anything now. They like to use a jitter bug on machined surfaces. Not a smart move. | |

| Certain things they send to other weaver stores, plus I know that at one time they had some real retards working there. They DO still send certain things out, but if you take a head in for work in Sauk, they do the job right. | |

The guy probably wants them back this year. he had my block and head done in a few weeks, i told him to take his time and dont worry about rushing anything. and guess what, everything is perfect. i had him plane a head and had it back next day. also had him check my block and head when it was apart. take took an hour. | |

| FML heads have holes in them. This suck's balls, car is going to be down a while. If it's not one thing it's another. Hopefully Lloyd Elliot takes care of me.
Side note glad I ended up having them pressure tested. |
