Default Head rebuild, Shop suggestions?

Well recently during hurricane ernesto i hydrolocked my motor leading to what i beleive after troubleshootings is bent valves. I was told I'm going to need the full head rebuilt from valves, to water pump, both belts, and whatever else is messed up. I'm looking for GOOD REpUTATION shops to do this for me. If you are a representitve or work for the shop and can give me some sort of range in price PM me. If you know any good shops please post and let me know so i can further look into it. It will take me about a week or two to get the money but i need to know what I'm looking at.

Might be easier to just drop in another H22 and sell off the old one for parts.

When I had my Supra. I gave them my old one after I got the new one on the car.

I dont know if they do this with everyone, I had the hook up.

That car was pretty stout too

How did you determine its only the valves that are messed up? Typicallly the rods bend when you hydrolock a motor. call me up tomorrrow or hit me up on AIM - RPRacing04
