Just curious..
What does a new bare head cost?
And what did it cost to fix that one?

I would have done the same, I just didn't know what something like that costs.
Good luck on the repair.

I'm no machinist, and have never had a head repaired like this, but it seems that I still see some pits there that might create some real hot-spots in the chamber.


It's good to know that something that ugly can be fixed, though.
