Default Cylinder head porting....

Looking for experienced head porter to do a set of heads.

Here is the situation:

We are doing a magazine article and are on somewhat of a time schedule. I do NOT want free heads, I only mention the magazine because of the time restraints. I need someone who has a set of heads that can be sent out and the cores will be returned AFTER the R&R. The bike is a 2005 Heritage, I don't care if you have 05' heads or newer, but the cores you will receive back will be off of the 05'.

If you are interested and can have the heads done by next week please email me with a number and I will contact you with the rest of the information.

I am in no way saying you will receive any type of mention or advertisement from this, that will be completely up to the magazine.

Thank you,

David

I completely understand. You have been great answering questions and I really appreciate it. I needed to educate myself a bit before I made a decision.

Again, thank you!
