I'd go for it. I'm sure they'll let you know if the scratches can't be dealt with prior to starting the procedure. Just ask and I'm sure they'll keep you in the loop before you're out 1000 bucks.

That's what I was scared about is paying the money then sending them the heads then come to find out they can't do them. Not sure how they do the paying process when you send in heads but I don't wanna be out 1000 bucks

I'm pretty positive they will check them out first and let you know where you stand. Call and ask, then you'll know before hand

They're closed today but I sent a email out to them because I still have some questions about the push rods then questions about the springs I have in my other heads that only have like 200 miles on them

Yep I'm sure they'll get it all sorted out for you. My guess is the push rod length will be the same

Yeah my cam was able to use the stock push rods and they were fine when they looked at them so still debating if I wanna get new ones. I heard with upgraded springs the rods will be fine
