Nice professional work for sure. can I ask one question though. Why no back cutting on valve (multi angle valve job)? When I was building SBCs that was a standard performance procedure. Do we need not do it on the lsx engines?

Nice work, Ellis.

Knowing how hard it is to do the things Ellis does, he should charge a good deal more than he does for his labor. I hope you guys recognize the excellent deal you are getting on service. That stuff is easy to screw up and hard to do right and be sure it is reliable. Not to mention the turn around time!

Nice work Ellis! Sorry I didn't make it out last night....too much to drink.

As I have told anyone who asks, Ellis is good, & he knows his ****, but the most important part to me is he will take ALL the time he needs to do the job right. No short cuts to get the car running today. I've seen him tear things completely back apart or send them off to the machine shop to make sure it's right. And as Cory says, for what he charges, it's a frigging steal!!!

Look Very closely Robert..

..The back cut ends just before the the dark area where the valves were lapped in

Thank you for the words guy. Nick has found out along the way I will not take the word of anyone...not even a well known sponser.

When I am done I will post up my thought on the project with Nicks permision
