I wouldn't degree it without the heads either. If he did, you bolt the heads on, and fire it up only to have the valve hit the pistons, you'd come back with your head on fire accusing him of not doing his job. There's more to it than bolting stuff together. I know this, and I'm no expert. The real pros know.


two different things. whoever does the top end is responsible for valve to piston clearance, and quench. i would never do a short block only. scary. gimme the whole job or go elsewhere.


for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?
