He's in Colorado Springs, I'm in Westminster. If you wanna drive clear down there for hot tanking, feel free. I can do it locally and have it back to you the same day.

What, you think that's a marketable skill? :p ;)

[M@]

lol. Not quite, I just have the capability of getting it done same day, and for cheap. So if they want it done same day locally for a good price, I can do it. ;)

Yeah, $30 ain't bad at all. I was paying $50 through all-pro when I worked with them, haven't priced out machinists near my shop yet. And with most machining work hot-tanking comes free.

Is your hot tank aluminum safe? I have a brand new pair of heads for my car that are still coated in cosmoline, needs to be stripped off.

[M@]

Yep. I've hot tanked about 7 Honda blocks, a couple Honda heads, a few intakes, etc.

I thought of that immediately after posting, forgot honda uses aluminum blocks for a minute there. I'm used to heavy ass iron blocks and alum heads. First time I went to put a Honda motor on the stand, I damn near died of laughter when I lifted it on with one hand. My bare block weighs about 110 pounds, feels like twice that :(

What'll you charge to do 2 heads (v6)? I have them at home in Lafayette, much easier to bring them to Westminster than hauling them up to my machinist in Longmont just for cleaning before any work is done.

[M@]

Hahahah. Yeah, Honda blocks are skinny little sluts. Not so much with a crank, rods, pistons, maincaps in it though. :D

If you want me to do those heads for you, PM me and we can meet up sometime.

[doctorstupid]

See my edit; I have no PM space.

[M@]

I'll do both for $50?

[frog37_]

[chile]

M@, when would be a good time to bring one by?

[M@]

PM'd
