truth is the surface is more flat then it ever was!

[dwnrety1]

how much does it generally run to have a block/head resurfaced?

[jacktheripped]

I read this days ago and your wrong. because of torque and overheating there's a tendency for blocks to twist in this direction but to say all his vids show this is not true. there are many that show the oppisite.

16 is a good finish though!

I noticed that too, seems to be running shy on the rear side on all runs.

I've noticed that also.Probably not off more than .001-.0015 or so though.I would have decked it amd put on a torque plate before doing the cylinders though.

Notice something with this machine shops re-surfacer. It is off center! Every single block or head this guy resurfaces always seems to have an uneven surface towards the machine and to the back. Look at every resurfacing video, it's the same story with every one!

Lesson here is don't let these guy resurface a block or head of your until they service or replace their broken machine!

depends on how warped the deck is.
