      I have a place here in IL. He comes and picks them up from the shop. Has done all of our head work and is the guy that the local bmw dealers use as well. Anything wrong with it?

          there is always C&S Performance in Butler. A few of us here have used them for head work.

            I was quoted $75 for a skim cut (remove .002" to .003") and an additional $75 for a pressure test on an M20 head to give you an idea of prices at C&S.  They are a little more expensive than other places but even other race shops like Behling take their engines there for machining.

            My only gripe with them is I get the feeling that they don't take you as seriously if you don't walk in with domestic V8 parts

                I took my m20 head to Performance Engine and Machine in Middleton for all of the above you mentioned needing done.  I think it was like $250 for everything.  No idea if that was good or not as it was the only place around me I could find.
