   You have the money to justify cnc machined head work?? that must be around the £600-800 mark

   They are very good, I've seen a few duratecs have cnc headwork and they made great power. They have backing of proper before and after flow testing so know the results they achieve.
   
   The price is on the site.. Works out to about 900inc vat

    Just use a magnetic stick to get it out, or did you run it?
