Can't believe someone tried to clean it with a disc sander...

It shaves of any uneveness or warpage. Therefore the the headgasket can provide a "perfect" seal across the head.

Are you talking about a process to metallise aluminium valve seats?

nice is very good

Great video.

Also where did you ind your specifcations and tolerances for the head. i have been looking and havent been able to find much

Kind of looks to me that both the head and the block were mounted wrong a little on the resurfacing machine. Of course that still doesn't account for the clearly defined marks and surface issues that were present.

Hello Mr Edwards!
I was wondering, what was the Ra before resurfacing the head? What is the Ra if someone uses a scotch brite to clean the old head gasket material?
im going to be building an SR20DET head im my college engine machining class. i have a question if you dont mind.
1. does the head have aluminum valve seats? or are they of another material?

@burkeeluvshiscivic - Laser clad valve seats are not used in this engine like some other cars, it has iron metal seats.

It would be suicide to make a turbo engine with aluminium valve seats- the exhaust temperature would scorch them.

@douro20 - Do you know anything about laser clad valve seats? Toyota, Suzuki, and several other manufacturers are using them in some of their engine and they hold up quite well - where did you get your information? Or, is this from personal experience?
