I used the guys at Xtreme Cylinder Heads in Florida. They did a very nice job refreshing my Carrera twin plug heads. I was expecting to only need a simple valve job, etc. but after disassembling the heads, they found that new guides were needed along with exhaust valves. Now, I have a set of heads that I feel are in really great shape and may be depended on to perform properly for a long time! The cost of their work was very reasonable. If needed, they can "CC" your cylinder heads so that you will have the chamber volume info. You will likely hear about other shops that are just as qualified, so choose the one that is closest to your location that has a good rep. Be absolutely certain to package the heads carefully and insure for LOTS of value! Good luck!
