whos that danny ?
A place called Road and Rally, apparently been going for years a couple of my mates use them!
But they were v.honest and genuine with me, I asked if it was a good idea to get any headwork done and they said if your not putting cams in it and it's a pretty standard engine then there's not much point as they are well built heads anyway!

Gibbo's the head man :lol:
I paid £90 for the head to be pressure tested, skimmed and new valve stem oil seals put in

THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH SKIMMING LOL
skimming, its a preference.
Nothing really wrong with it, but i've yet to see someone who skims do it to any decent finish.
Grinding ensures 100% perfect surface flatness and finish quality.
If you ever buy anything 'precision' flat or smooth its ground.
