This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

Wheres a good place to send some heads to get ported?

    rdj59 It's like sex on ice

    Over this winter i am looking at getting the heads on my 350 done up and was wondering who does a great job for a good price. I think i am going to look for another lincoln to put my motor in and go with a Tremmec TKO-600 possibly. I feel like the heads are holding me back. I think i'll also go with the 73+ rods and look into some forged 10.2:1 pistons with valve notches. Then while i'm at i might as well get some 1.60 roller rockers and be done with it. :Brow: I think i can accomplish all this for hopefully under 5 grand.
    Thanks,
    Jeramie

    Try Bobb Makley and Geof Ketchum at Finishline Motorsports in Hastings Mich. They do some top notch Buick work. You won't be disappointed.
