** note that Metric Motors won't work on a head that's been drilled nor accept it as a core for a replacement head. Not saying they're being unreasonable, just something to consider before drilling.

Yeah I remember that, that's why my friend just sent it out, I think he had 3 stuck in. Pulling it isn't that hard, and it gives them a good chance to go over it. If you plan on keeping the car its not a bad idea, it insures it will run at 100% for the next 200k miles.

His runs really good now that Metric went through it, its like turning back the clock. The bottom ends don't really wear.
