we have always used Vulcan engineering to do our work...although there are some horror stories going around about them...as we know steve on a very good level he knows he'll get bollocked if he messes nething up and will have to do it all again lol

they are also doing my zetec head to big port, ideal shape, big valves etc etc level....

also have a flow bench there to test everything is going well

as i said...i personally have had nothing but EXCELLENT results from them but i know there are people on this board who have had different

bassboy

p.s please dont turn this into a slate vulcan post lol
