How do you recommend for some big valve work on type 1 heads in brisbane? Not going nuts, just want to open them up a bit.
i got some heads reco'd by Power Brake Auto i think they are called on newmarket road at windsor/wilston
i was happy with their work....
they were sensationally priced too ps.

send them to jax heads in lismore --excellent work:beer
Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

send them to Ben, contact him via email thru his site.
freight by Aussie post- cheaper than you would ever think.
that's where my heads are getting the treatment right now.
peter liddle at sumner park is VERY VERY good if you are looking for quality look no further BUT when you get your heads done id strongly suggest you also supply inlet manifolds and headers for port matching :thumb

the guys to see in Qld without a doubt is Craig Brown @ Crankshaft Eng. in Bne. Craig has been modifying VW stuff for years, including Drags,speedway,offroad etc.
If you want to send them over the border then Stan Pobjoy or Peter Richards. These guys are building my engine. Pete is working my heads & manifolds over..!!
If you want contacts then let me Know.

Small cracks between the seats are OK and expected on twin ports.
Jax heads will fix cracks no trouble at all that guy is a unbelevable when it comes to fixing vw heads some of the stuff i have sean him fix is just awesome
You only need two tools
Wd40 if it don't move and it should
Duct tape if it move's and it shouldn't
its a single port, Lol

Small ones, but there's one which is a little worrying.
