The heads were used but clean, disassembled, and freshly decked. I supplied new valves, seats, retainers, locks, and springs. I didn't supply the seals because I didn't know what would be needed after the work was done.

I told him that I needed every bit of flow I could get out of them. He and I discussed it at length and he said it would be around $750.

Everyone scoffed at the $1600 quote I had previously so I thought that price was more typical.

He did the ports, chambers, faced the valve seats, and assembled the valves.
