Who's Da Man.....to twin plug heads?

Need some suggestions about where to get a set of 3.0 heads drilled for twin plugs, ported, new guides and a killer valve job? Prefer the south eastern US, but I guess it really doesn't matter as long as UPS, FedEx or USPS goes there!

Thanks,

Extreme Cylinder Head Palm City FL... not cheap, but fantastic work. Bill is on here every now and then.

Thread on some of their work.

Xtreme Cylinder Heads for Porsche

I'm sure there are some good shops nearer to you in GA as well.

Craig Garrett (cgarr here on the board) did mine. Great job, very economical, and quick turn around. I think he is based in Grand Rapids, MI

+3, +4 Craig did mine and JayJ's. Excellent machinist. He did our valve guides, valves, valve springs, light machining of the head sealing surfaces and also twin plugged my heads plus valve covers too. He also rebushes and refaces rocker arms.

For sure you need to check with Mike Bruns (MBruns on this board) at JB Racing in Tavares, FL. Tremendous talent, outstanding facility and no BS.

Omega in Jacksonville, FL has the tooling to do twin plugs. I know they've done it, and do lots of Porsche and ferarri work. Haven't had head work done by them but somewhere to check.
