Default ok hans' work you decide...i have

ok most know whats up with these heads from the other post. i took em back to hans and he said they were "as good as we could do" and "the surface is the same as on all the heads we do, and we have guys running 30lb's on em"....i guess i need a bigger blower so they would be right lol. here is what hans said is good and and herethey are now after joe fixed em http://i629.photobucket.com/albums/u...90508-1356.jpg and http://i629.photobucket.com/albums/u...0417-14411.jpg what do yall think?

Surface finish looks much better, probably used a different cutter.

The surfacing looks way better and the ports look like they should.
Did they ever get flowed?

*EDIT* is that guide still unfinished in the first pic? or is it a before shot?

joe torres he worked for hans and did the work the first time but told hans he was not done yet and hans insisted he was. so hans gave em back and told me they were done and flowed 319. joe resurfaced them also cause he said the surface was wrong also and did not charge me for the resurfacing. said he took 3 thou off to clean them up. he said the one cylinder that was done at hans shop flowed 319 @ 6 and he finnished the others. but no bench. he said they are all as close to the same as u can get with out a cnc. as far as i am concerned he is a stand up guy. and the heads def look good....not that that says how they will perform.

yea the original pic looks like it was cut way to fast, just like brake rotors the slower the cut the smoother they will come out , this is true for all kinds of milling/resurfacing. looks much better though, thats for sure!

So this Joe guy, that works for Hans, did the work originally. Hans gave you the heads, even though he wasn't done? Now Joe finished the rest of the ports, and fixes his original surface finish? Is he still working for Hans, or does he have his own shop?

yes he fixed the ports that he was originally working on (and hans said they were done,when they werent). yes he fixed the milled surface that hans did. no he doesnt work for hans anymore. yes he has his own shop. he said under the circumstances he knows i got screwed but he wasnt the boss and now he has his own shop so he took care of it. hans said the surface was right and would not change it.
