Did you finally get yours working? Hoping Eric can dial mine in once I get the truck back from Craig.

Mike@MPD · Jul 31, 2014

Awesome build so far. I've been looking for this kind of build for a while now.

loving this build

Gave up on the other place. Picked my stuff back up, going to try to drop it off at another shop on Saturday. Cleaned up the heads just for ****s and giggles, actually look damn good for 160k+ with emissions.

Ignore the brown, they are coated with rust preventative.

Dropped the block and heads off at another machine shop that does mostly diesels.

Getting the block bored and decked. Heads are also getting hardened exhaust seats, decked, and a valve job.

Seems like I do a hell of a job when it comes to picking the slowest machine shops...

Wouldn't be bad, except this is the machine shop the local Cummins dealer uses. All of the **** get pushed in front. All the other shops around here are old school dudes who refuse to touch diesels.

not all. mine will get a set of heads done in a few hours. short block done in a couple days. from drop off to pick up. and they are cheap. $90 for both heads to be surfaced an magged

im just lucky i guess

I have a shop that will do heads next day for $100, but they won't do blocks or seat work. They used to be an automotive machine shop, but have now turned into an industrial machine shop.
