that sucks dude! do you think the head work was worth it? i was thinking of getting mine done on my vs. Was it 400 bucks? thats not overly expensive for some thing like that is it?

ah well was sorta expecting it, the head work, was a heap more responsive and a fair increase in power, i hope the heads are fine so i can bolt to the new motor :), and 400 bux got the ehads shaved, ported and polished, too me that was a reasonable price.
