Default head porting - MAX CFM..??

Has anyone gone through user "Max CFM" on h-tech for head porting..I got a quote from them once it was a good price for head porting, valvetrain installation, and valve seals..

any actual experiences..?

I have heard only good things about Max CFM. Looks like I'll be sending my head to him and I live in a different hemisphere.....

wow....where to start...

Ok, Brad is a good friend of mine...and I am NOT BEING BIASED because of that...but he is BY FAR the best Honda Head porter there is. I MEAN THAT

Soon-2b-evil has a verrry nice head done by him
he just finished my friends ITR head..just pidly stuff though
there are several pro racers using his stuff..no names mentioned..cause, i can't.
there is a BMW race team using him
there are more street cars than I can count rolling around with his work
there are NUMEROUS ppl on this board using his stuff
NASCAR uses a lot of his stuff
Hendrick uses a lot of his stuff
IRL uses a lot of his stuff
Lots of RWD pro drags use his stuff
I WILL be using his stuff
YOU SHOULD BE using his stuff

He has one of my cylinder heads on his possession right now, and sending him another one once I get this one back. I went with Rocket's valvetrain and his recommandation. I will post some pics when I get it, but pics don't mean anything other than what it puts down on the ground at the 1/4 and dyno#.

Brad is a very knowledgable guy. I went with him for my head, and he did an awsome job. He has been tons of help, and told me about a few good tricks.

You will not be dissapointed.

sad part is....there is a wait right now
he's gotten swampped lately.

I'll be up there today, and i'll get an estimate on a time interval from when it gets there till it can be done and out.

He just hired another guy to do some base grinding...and then he'll come in and finish it off and make it perfect and what not. The new guy isn'ta new guy though...he's good. NOT as good as brad...but good, real good.

Here are some pics of MAX_CFM's work.

You may need to change your head porter choice and pants after looking at these pics.

its a bargain.

he charges around 1200 for full port job, yet it takes bare minimum 30hours to do it.

rlz is kinda new to h-t, but hes been around for a while making some wickedly fast motors that have won alot of races because of his talents

Rocket,

Thanks for the advice and referral a few months back, as more and more I see pics of this, I rather just hangout it on the wall for a show display, lol.

That's ******* sick. I think I know the guys name and he's not "new".

RLZ is the real deal, just sit back and anticipate.

true, he's just new to the shop...and for a large part ot the import scene. Brad needed someone that could go in and grind what needed to be done...and get it to where Brad just has to come in and do his magic to finalize the head. This way, there isn't a huge waiting period...and more ppl can experience the head work.

Just RLZ looking out for you guys
