Ken Maynard from Cleveland DSM and NABR has offered to do porting work and such for Columbus DSM. His heads are well known around the local NABR community, and currently Ken from our club is using a Maynard spec head.

His head worked is backed by some very impressive times. Running a 12.8 on a ported 14b@15psi on pump gas, his ported head, and exhaust and a custom fab front mount... blowing black smoke down the track do to a intercooler pipe leak.

If your interested in any head work or have any further questions.. please email or PM me and I will make sure to get contact information to you.

If you have a head that has been damaged, its best to buy one from Ken for $150 pulled from a working car and then add what work you would like done.

His prices are as follows: head porting is $200, a 3-angle valve grind is $150, and valve seals are $20. So, a complete head refresh, with port job is $370-pending that the head is flat (you supply the head). Add $40 for a resurface.

If you dont have a head to supply.. it would be $150 for the working head plus the work of ... So, the most a reworked head (supplied by Ken) would cost would be $560 if it needed all work.

Some of the other local cars that he massaged the heads on were:

His own, "BAD LIL 4", 11.54@121mph, VPC, 57trim/.48ar, 550's, BR fmic, 272's, BR shortblock, full weight.

Greg Hammel, 12.07@115mph, 120k mile shortblock, VPC, 264's, big 16g, IRC street core, full weight.

Dan Johnson, 11.7@119mph, 115k mile shortblock, stock cams, intake, etc.... BR500, 660's, Griffen fmic, 2g MAS.


With some motivation on my part he'll be freshening my junk this winter.

We'll see what it can do with a 178k mile shortblock with a somewhat stock everything else. ;) Pending I get no leaks when it's put back together.
