Hell no!

$AUD7,000 for all machining, new SS valves and new guides. Heads come back
fully assembled. Obviously that doesn't include any remove/refit
etc...that's just the head job, if you'll excuse the expression.

Peter,
The headwork is about $18k isn't it? For stainless valve guides etc. Please
tell me you have a less expensive outlet. My buddies 97 spider is starting
to speak with the the blue puff.
