Looks good. Whose machining them?

 

[PTSUPERD]

Local guy here in Beaumont. Jason uses him for alot of stuff. He did my 7.3 heads too..

 

[Agjake11]

What's he charge per head. Found a place in Houston that does them for 350 each which isn't bad IMO but always looking out for deals

 

[JDub]

These the heads off your truck or an extra set?

 

[PTSUPERD]

Shoot Jason a PM. He'll know...

Set I scored extra for $250 imp:

Doing it this way to reduce downtime.

Dam thats a little pricey. My machine shop I use does a set for about 400, including magnaflux, milling, seals and a 3 angle job

Agreed, I paid $445 for decking, pressure washing, magnafluxing, a full valve job, new valve seats and any valve springs or valves that needed replacing.

The breakdown on my bill shows $80 to deck two heads.

That's what I thought also. I can get a set of rebuilt ones for not too much more than that.

Yeah no kidding, I dunno why they are trying to charge so much, like what was said above mine were about 80 just for decking as well, another 80 was for hot tanking, head dissasembly and magnafluxing

 

[Agjake11]

Jasons gonna be getting a call soon then

 

[PTSUPERD]

He'll hook you up. He's overseeing all machine work for me...

 

[6leakertweeker]

Hows this thing coming along. That's about the same setup I plan on doing.

 

[PTSUPERD]

Heads are done. Waiting on my sump, fuel pump, fuel system and some odds and ends. Gonna be a couple more weeks before we can get the truck on a lift.

 

[6leakertweeker]

Right on. I can't wait to see how it turns out. Plan on running any water/Meth to keep things cool? What fuel system are you going with? Dozers RR and Ad??

 

[PTSUPERD]

No water / meth planned. Dozer's race fuel system. I had a dead Fass 150/180. Having a Fuel Lab pump retroed onto the block as I lost all faith in Fass after the 3rd failure on my 7.3.
