Boy howdy. Machine shops can really suck. That's why we gave up on the original 308s at the start of this thread. The original machine shop that worked on them sunk the valves but told me what a wonderful job he had done on them and that he had cleaned up the bowl under the valves. The only thing he did was cost me money.
But Moparofficial found me another pair of heads for building and found a good machine shop to do the work on them and they should be just about done now.
The good machine shop here that I finally wound up using for my block work has now switched owners. So I don't know if I'm going to get the same quality of work or not.
Good machine shops are hard to find.
