Thanks steve,

Any idea what the cost is roughly with bronze guides?

[N I B]

Tomei guides are much cheaper than genuine but still a very expencive job.

Best ring Stuart for a quote.

harris engineering in ossie park did mine, was about 6-700 bucks all up from memory for getting all the guides removed, and replaced, reseat all the valves, replaced the stem seals, acid cleaned everythings and reasembled with the springs i supplied them..

Rb26s need the shims set when the heads are reco'ed so allow for that also.

ahhh the joy of the solid cam... shims.

Denver,

Sounds about right although the price wouldn't have included bronze guides since they cost a good $400 a set? Adding in that puts it around $1100 or so then.

Correct, i supplied them with a set of jun goodies to drop into it, make sure they have the tools to pull out the old guides and push in the new ones, harris had a bunch of tools they'd made to do this and ive had no issues thus far with my head..

when it comes to getting shims contact precision shims in victoria, www.precisionshims.com.au i rang them up, they had everything on the shelf, eft'd the cash, they turned up in the mail the following morning, couldn't ask for better service..
