Looks like the head and block are both reusable. I still say send the head to ER. If you pm or talk to Aaron, he'll probably tell you how it outflowed a certain company head on said certain company's flow bench. And how it made 100whp over another certain company's head on a high HP setup.
The exhaust ports require A LOT of work on the X head because they're so small.

I'm leaning more towards sleeving the block now which adds even more $$$$ to my planned build so a ported head goes way down the list.
Got a quote from Race Engine Development for $1400 for sleeving my block. Not bad. Looks like I will be moving forward with that...
So much for a gawdamn simple build.... damn cars...
That almost sounds cheap lol. I think LA Sleeve was around $2500 when a friend of mine did it.

Making it hard to pick the Carrillo over the Turbo Tuff with that price difference...
The insane weight difference definitely makes it worth it IMO. Did you try English Racing? I know, I know, I bring them up a lot LOL. But they're currently using Carrillo in all of their steel rod motors and may have better pricing.
