Default head milled to much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

hey i picked up a B16 head on saturday with a portflow port job
the port work looks great but the head is been milled pretty bad you can no longer see the round chambers on the deck
my question is im afraid of getting it resurfaced because there are slight scratches from the head been pushed around the shop
i brought it to the machine shop and hopefully it can be saved ............

get it check to see how much is mill... you could run a thicker head gasket too on a pretty mill head. good luck

If you got the cash, I suggest a Cometic head gasket.

I also have a highly milled b16a2 head, I used the Cometic 60,000 works pretty good for me, but u should have it checked out to see how much your head was milled.
