****56Ker BEWARE---there are a lot of BIG pics ahead ****

just had this stuff done:
1. street port and polish job done on the inner bowls of the intake/exhaust runners
2. 3 angle valve job
3. pressure test
4. hot tank
5. installation of Ferrea stainless steel valves (exhaust= .5 mm oversized)

needless to say, I AM VERY PLEASED

here are some BEFORE pics:








and the AFTER pics:

 

wow looks 200% better very nice

 

good lordy mordy

looks great

 

looks like my old head. have fun.

 

 

wow, almost sad to put it back on so it can get nasty agian

 

Head looks like a beauty but it is not ported. The original speckles from the honda mold are still on the runners. Look into that.
EVIL

 

How much does a job like this cost?

 

Yeah how much for it?

 

Look into the port, he said they only did the bowls of the ports...

Anyway, looks good!! nice valves

 

Anthony, did you have eastwood do your work?
The port work looks just like factory type r porting.

 

was the before pic a b16 itr head?? and theafter pic a gsr head?>??

 

thanks for the compliments guys.......i too am excited with the work

it really is sad that i have to put this beautiful piece of art back on the block to get all dirty again but oh well

i never said the whole length of the runners were ported....this is a daily driver, street p&p job, cleaned up and opened up the surfaces better flow/ minor power increase

this list of things cost $470:
1. hot tank
2. pressure test
3. 3 angle valve jobs
4. resurface head
5. bowl work (p&p)
6. valve stem seals (actual pieces i did not provide them with)

tbone: ya eastwoods did it and i dropped the head off last thursday with the head and valves and it was ready today.........i'm a happy customer...in fact so happy i gave mark (the guy who did the work so quickly for me) a $30 tip--i gave them $500 total)

Giovannie: the pics before and after are of MY head

 

how come you just didnt get the whole thing ported and polished? is it really that much more?

 

i neglected to get the whole thing ported and polished for two main reasons:

1. i don't need that type of job for the application (daily driver...soon to be turbo)
2. the $ situation (it would have been a few hundred dollars more)

 

i understand the money part, but does it really flow that much better if you did the whole thing? i plan to do all motor daily driver. will this help?

 

it is so clean you can eat off it. In the pic it looks like you have the food ready :D

 

Who ported the head, and why weren't the facets in the combustion chamber removed?

It's not the best port work I've ever seen, but far from the worst either. The actual work in the ports themselves isn't that bad at all.

 

question? you are running .5mm oversized exhaust valves is this for you current nitrous set up or for you new turbo project?

 

Ya the valve seals are only like 2.50 each at the Honda dealer, so no biggy there. Head looks nice, i hope they didn't mill it to much as you said you are going turbo. Can't really see the tab from the pic. Also i think you should of had them do a slight port on the intake and exhaust runners just to clean them up. Nothing major as you said you are going turbo, and you wouldn't want to mess up the air flow into the chambers.

 

you just made me giddy. p&p's are

 

looks like clean work, i wouldn't know in comparison to other places but sure does make a difference in comparison to the before pics

 

looks pretty, I'm jealous, but someday...

 

yea about $900-$1800 for a full comp p+p job you get what you pay for though.......

 

is there a way i can just do it my self?
