Thanks for the response Jeff. Is that price for a pair or just one (bank 1-4). Do have new engines(complete), long blocks, and/or short blocks? |

Kent, I noticed you're not that far away from me. I can't do the machining, but I can certainly do the welding... Shoot me an email: [email protected]

Try a race engine build shop they can fix anything, as they like to keep their old special components going and to not have to go through the process of blue-printing a new head/block. As said by others race engine blow-ups require laterial thinking to repair. Good luck Pete |

What your machine shop really means is that they can't repair it. Check around, make some calls. I know of a V12 head that had a cumbustion chamber welded up (heavily damaged by a broken valve) remachined, then the cam journals realigned. The car has now run strong for years. Your job should be relatively simple. Dave |

I've seen aluminum cyl heads that were badly damaged in race engine blow-ups that were rewelded and machined. Your basic engine shop probably can't do this. Check with race engine specialists. At the price you'll probably have to pay for new (or even possibly used), I'd be surprised if a repair wouldn't be a lot cheaper. |

Before buying a new head, Email Bill Baderski (sp) he is on this board to see if he can repair it. |

I'm in need of a (328)3.2 head bank 1-4. My cam journal seized and the machine shop can't rebuild it. Does anyone have a one they would be willing to sell? Thanks in advance! |
