Head Recon

Featured Replies

Howdy all,

 

Where is the best (cheap) place to get a 3k head reconditioned in Perth metro??

A guy at work has recommended Applied Automotive in Bentley. The qute was $55 for reface, Max $250 if lots of welding required. Sounds good to me.

thats cheap as..when i got mine (4age) fully recoed it me about 550..they had to weld heaps tho..

I got my 4AGE head done about 2 months ago or so.

 

Cost me $640 with new valves, New everything and no welding was needed.

 

$250 Sounds a bit cheap to me. Are they doing valve stem seals, Re grinding valve seats, Crack testing, Vacuum test the valves etc ?

I don't think so for that price, but I might get them to do all that. I'll let you know what the final damage is.

Final damage completely rebuilt, ready to fit $360. Thats valves reground (exhaust somethings replaced). Some welding required.

 

Is this resonable??

 

Oh and the second head I picked up was cactus, it's the thought that counts, thanks for jumping in and trying to help me out.
