    Cylinder head recon suggestions

    Hi Guys,
    Im about to receive my first partol on the weekend. But the valve seats need to be replaced as the engine has been running on gas. My question is does anyone know of a good knowlagable cylinder head reconditioner in Melbourne's eastern suburbs.

    I was recently talking with a engine reco-er.
    He sugestered gen jap inserts are basically up to the task of lpg, but need to be inspected of course, even the valves are pretty reliable,
    problems tend to lay with poor lpg mixture tune.
    Im no expert but thought worth passing on.
    I did how-ever use hardned as a full set of New hardned valves was only about $120 so why risk it.
    works out at double the price for new hardned, ver's reco 2nd hand, not worth the trouble hay.
    IF IT'S NOT A NISSAN.
    THEN IT'S A COMPROMISE
