Hello folks,
I have a used set of the 6037s that I purchased over a year ago and I want to get them looked at before installing.
I think they have the stock springs but I'm not sure.I would like to have a 3 angle valve job and hardened spring cups installed and maybe a little bowl work if recommended.
I don't know of anyone local but if someone does please provide a contact name.
If any of the head builders on this site can assist I would appreciate it.
Thanks for the replies.
 
Sure hope you took a valve out before buying them. I looked at a few sets for around $500 and most were junk once the valves were out. For port work on my dad's set, I smoothed the rough machine edges where the valve seats mount into the aluminum and unshrouded the intake valve a little. The ports were pretty decent, just a quicky port match, nothing too drastic to kill low end flow on his AOD car. With a E cam and GT 40 intake it runs well, but not race car'ish.
