What do you need done? Porting? or just general repair.

I always recommend Center Machine in Stratford, they did a great job with my Audi I5 rebuild many years ago, along with lots of smaller projects. Nice guys too, no BS or delays.

Yea, they do good work. When I worked at perkins subaru we sent all the heads there, and one of the other techs had his heads done at thunder they came out really good.

Does anyone know a roundabout price of what machine shops charge for normal headwork? I figured anywhere between $400-600 dollars. does that sound about right?

Another shop is Precision Machine in Simsbury. Apparently more than a few Subaru dealers use them for machine work.

Anyone have any good words for anything around new haven?, I'm gonna check out thunder in the AM and see what kind of price they'd want to check out and clean up a ej25 block (glass beading I'm guessing how it's done?) a completely torn down p2 ej25 that had a #4 rod bearing go... (not too bad).. Definitely a hone, possibly a bore if nec..
