3k head

This could be a bargain... Gonna be pretty high compression me thinks. :harhar:

"never been ported" - this means the opposite of "high performance" :harhar:

 

it might be a bigport (you'd have to ask him if it's got a welsch plug or the plate on the back), but still, it's still got crappy early retainers and stem seals, you'd be better just shaving a 4k-c head for compression

He paid over $500 originally for it. I would have expected it to be complete, and ported for that amount of money.

yeah people say that, but i'm yet to see one done that cheap

 

my bigport was f@$ked when i got it, requiring welding and so many helicoils, plus standard reco stuff and changing over to 4k valves and gear and that cost me $630. i ported it myself

 

xany, how much did all the final porting and bigvalve work on your head cost?

My 3K big port head cost me $800 to have done. Fortunately it was in Excellent condition. The water jackets were near perfect.

I paid to have the work done to mine which included all the necessary machining including rocker surfaces, Dual Valve Springs, Larger Valves, Race Port and flow bench tests before and after.

That seems to be the going price in my area.
