that is actually about the normal price if you have it done by a shop that knows what they are doing.



Gude does good work, they did some work on a b18c head we had a few years back. We were satisfied.

plus shipping.... plus the donwtime of sending them a cam. otherwise they want 724.00 to ship a reground cam to you. i know they do really good work, but it just seems a bit much.

sure for a gsr which is dohc.. i dont think it would be that impressive for our engines(2.2/2.3)..

seems like a good upgrade tho.. for going all motor
