Default Cylinder head work recommendations???

Anyone know of a good shop i can send a set of heads to? They need to get worked over, they were hand ported by the previous owner, but could use a lil touch up.

RayMac is in South Ft Worth off 35 on Coin St. Chris is a badass but is also $$$$. Cant say I care for the owner William Margowski (Head *****) but the guys in the shop know what they are doing for sure!

Everybody likes to throw out names that are top caliber, which comes with a high cost and long timeline (usually). OP, what are you wanting to do with them? You likely could be just as well off sending them to one of the CNC sponsors and letting them run a program on them.

LOL..Just thought id share with ya patrick. Bill's not with the shop anymore. He went back to taking the reigns of his old automotive shop a few weeks ago. He also wasnt an owner. Just an account executive and engine builder.

badass and reasonable don't go together. Sorry to break that too you. You pay for what you get. Which isn't that great in these cases.

You are hard to impress with everything ******. Pretty sure you would say Michael Jordan was an "ok" basketball player.

I work with chris at Raymac, and have seen quite a bit of his work. Everything I have seen makes real good power, runs fast, and makes the customers happy. I'm sure he could do you a nice set of heads for a pretty reasonable price. Shoot me a pm if you want.
