Received heads
« on: 19 March 2009, 19:22:05 »

Received my heads to do off Markey Mark.

No hope of using my valve spring compressor - it is too big.

They need cleaning, and I will regrind all the valves and also port mod.

What is good for cleaning them and the parts?

better idea
put the head on the kitchen side with her mobile next to it
then ring her and ask her to wash it
