and BTW, I took it to 4 people.. and talked to several more before sending them to Schmidt.
Schmidt wasn't surprised - in fact, the sales guy told me it wasn't the first set they had to repair that came from Mike Weinle. The only good that made me feel was that I wasn't the only one duped by this guy.
It is costing a small fortune.. but they are saying they will be as good as any set they sell. They need to weld back in material in order then to C&C them. They told me it looked like someone just took a cutter into the bowl... and then didn't do anything else. Told me the valves were wrong in size in several aspects.. the length - circumference - margin.. Even the guide liners need to be replaced.
The result will be seen.. good or bad. As soon as it gets put back together I have time scheduled again at the dyno to see what the difference is.. Dennis Wheets Jr. also is going to flow them first before they go on the motor.
duh--if schmidt is redoing the heads to new again--WHY ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE THEM FLOW TESTED AGAIN--DO YOU NOT REALLY TRUST SCHMIDT OR ANYONE AT ALL TO DO WORK FOR YOU[I KNOW YOU HAVE SAID YOU HAVE BEEN TOOK BUT ????? :wink: :roll:
