Now that is funny! Heads look about like mine. Which was a good improvement too i might add. Kudos for doing it yourself.

update:




Ended up putting these on my car, stock valves and valve job. Just put a set of patriot golds on had them milled, and bolted them on.
Added ARH 1 7/8 (badass headers, Nick@ARH knows what hes doing), old fast78 I ported, and a Street Sweeper cam (I bought form New Era). Made some good power for the car having a s60, stock paper filter, stock maf, SLP 2otl catback.

I can't see the pics at work due to filters. I'm guessing this setup went quicker than the 12.21 in your sig?

Thanks for the update. I've seen so many threads where people will post something up like this and not finish. Seems like your hard work paid off.
