Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads.

4709 Views 81 Replies 30 Participants Last post by  SaabFan
I decided to go all out on my Group N head. The performance of Fast Bunnys cylinderhead really impressed me since it was using a stock cam. Fast Bunnys head was a Stage III and produced 186HP with a STOCK CAM!!!
Stage III heads use factory valves.
Stage IV heads use larger valves and 7mm stems
If we can get a few people together we could get a good deal.
Please respond if you are interested or have questions.
Llew. Resuming quest for 200WHP!

What would be a rough price for them? I might be interested if the price is right.
Re: Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads. (LysholmG60)

I'm about to get my head ported, so if the price is decent, I'm interested also!

I'm also about to get a stage 3 or more port job. Let us know prices, flow etc.
Right now I've got a quote from a place that can get me 25% more inlet flow and 40% more exhaust flow with stock sized valves with 7mm stems.

If the prices (and my bank account) agree with each other, I'm interested.

ya what would the prices be and about how long would the down time be?
Re: Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads. (Iceman666)

I'm very interested as head is on the floor about to be pnp'ed. What's the price? I was quoted 500 for larger valves from Francis at Motortechnic (easy now, I'm not defending anyone).
Re: Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads. (virgilsg60)

What would be a rough estimate on the prices?

I'd loooove to ship mine to FAST_BUNNY for a stageIII.... and with an Audi 5000 manifold. I'd also ship him my crank for a nice free revving engine!!

If he's ready to give us a price I'm definitely in!!!

Re doing your head is quite expensive:
Port intake/exhaust manifolds , might as well do TB too.
New Head studs
New head gasket
New intake/exhaust manifold gaskets
cam seal
prolly good idea to replace cam
lifters
springs
labor
Actual porting
Thats a hefty bill.. Probably could strap on some nitrous for less and end up with more power

Re: Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads. (SSj4G60)

I have to pull my head to fix the broked studs on my exhaust maniold. planning on getting it ported while it's out. And replacing the cam, valve springs, la de da de da.....
Re: Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads. (Nuprin)

We'll I see we do have a little interest. Here are some #'s for people. This is the estimated price. Price will be fixed after the head is inspected and cleaned. If any one has any questions feel free to IM or e-mail me. If I can get enogh people I can take $100 of each stage.

Stage 1- (why bother)
Stage 2- Clean and inspect, glass bead, Port and polish, polish combustion chamber, new tapered valve guids, set valve heights, bowl cut, surface head, reassemble $575
Stage 3- Same as #2 but add, Audi manifold, modifacation to fit manifold, change angle of intake runner, swirl polish valve $825
Stage 4- Same as #3 but add, Custom Manley Performance valves( 7mm stem 35mm ex, 40.5 mm intake( can do custome sizes)), all new seats, new valve keepers and retainers $ 1200
I am working on getting a good price on springs for thoughs that are intersted in doing heads.
Turn around is normally 10 business day once the head is in my hot little hands. For custom valves I need extra time since it takes two weeks to get them.
Here is manleys web site. The valves that I am having made are the Severe Dutys.

I'm in. I was impressed by this STOCK CAM dyno pull. Imagine what it will do with a performance cam. Heh heh heh then imagine a group N head!

Re: Group Buy on Ported Cylinder heads. (Fast_bunny)

My engine will be coming apart within the next 3-4 weeks, and I've been looking for what is described here as either a Stage III or Stage IV. A 10-day turnaround (or thereabouts) would be awesome.
Of course, I'd like to hear a little more about this (a couple questions, etc.), and a $100 discount would pretty much seal the deal, but I think you can count me in! If Llew already approves, I don't need too much convincing.

I should be working right now, but I'll post questions later or IM Fast_bunny...

what a nice dyno run, Fast_Bunny has a charge cooler too right? I would love to send my head away, but my block is not up for it...I need new rod bearings, and with 170k on the bottom, it needs attention...before I blow it....I need pistons...rings, bearings, a whole rebuild...I am getting depressed...I better stop thinking about it...
What a deal though, I'll spread the word to some of my friends...
