Head Work? Fire ring, o-ring, port, polished, etc.

Hey guys I'm thinking about getting my head ported, polished, fire ringed, and o-ringed so I can possibly run the 4,000 rpm tune with the smarty and also just to have it done for the twins. Is this worth doing and if so where can I send the head in to have it done? Thanks for your help

All you really need is a good set of valve springs and some head studs(I would run the 625s by ARP)to run the TNT-R

If you are going to send the head somewhere try Hamilton diesel out of Liberty Hill, TX

Lately, I have seen a lot of people say that you just need the 625's torqued correctly and springs to turn high RPM's and boost.

Randy's Engine in Richfield, Utah. Excellent work and he has the best equipment. He gets work in from all over the country and quite a few of the big shops send their work out to him.
He has a web site.
