Iv got head off the engine and it needs a refresh. The question is do i just get it refreshed or do i get it ported and polished or do i get larger valves. Iv got a reasonable budget and the refresh is looking at being $500ish. Is it worth geting extra work done? Really im after advice tips or ideas.
Cheers for any help

Brand new cast blue heads with larger ports and valves available from Yella Terra. Give them a call, see what you think.

read: $500 to spend. best bet is a black head rebuild with a little tickling of the ports.

Peter is right i do have more than $500 to spend if i see that its worth it. im thinking for my purposes that a $1300ish yella terra head is a little over the top. That would make it worth more than the rest of my engine. Im thinking oversized valves are

Was thanked: 5 time(s) in 5 post(s)
im pretty sure yella terra have stopped makin heads for 202s anyway... though they are worth the money so if u can find one second hand then go for it... just by themselves they up ur airflow considerably n ur performance will increase by bout 30%
