almost done

I got my cylinder head back from the machine shop today, they did great work as far as I can tell, the car still needs to be put back together, and we'll see how she runs.

I was very surpirsed, for $315 + tax I got all valve guides replace, surface milled, degreased of course, even painted. It looks brand new, this guy did an amazing job if you ask me. Naturally all valves were machined, one was replace since it was cracked, same with the spring.

If anyone is interested in a qulaity machine shop in Toronto area, let me know I'll send you the info, this place is definately worth a shot compared to every other place I found so far.

The head is already back on along with intake and exhaust mainfolds, now just the fuel distributor, belt, fan, air cleaner etc etc.... cooling hoses, fresh coolant and oil, and she's ready to do. I hope it'll be good as new *fingers crossed*
