another forum Wrote:Amazing work as always. How the heck do you get those shallow coolant passages around the chambers so clean?

oldeskewltoy Wrote:One of the costs.... I have each head cleaned and pressure checked at a machine shop. In this case the head did come to me cleaned already, but I still had it checked for its pressure holding capability.

another forum Wrote:The machine shop that does the work is seriously impressive then. I took two heads so far to two different machine shops and neither could get the coolant passages as spotless as this.

Not all of the heads I work have this "pretty" of a finish from cleaning...




BUT... all heads leaving are machined so that you can read in their reflection... OR more appropriate - fully ready for a metal head gasket!
