Brought to Totalmp in Slidell today for engine work.
Gonna pull down engine and redo heads. Will also get comp check on other engine and redo those heads also.
Anything else I should consider doing while down?
Should I change valves also, or just springs & guides?

The cost on the inconel valves for the exhaust side will shock you but you definitely don't want to go with anything less. Got my (2) 461's down at Diamond Racing in Hammond right now. I'm spending way more than I hoped but they will be bullet-proof when we are done. Don doesn't do anything halfway. Hope you'll have yours ready for the Tickfaw 200. That was my goal when I started this project in January. Seems to be snowballing out of control now. Oh well, that's the boater's life! Good luck!
