Anyone know the cheapest place to get a cylinder head skimmed in harrogate area (may have to go to leeds as not much industry in harrogate).

Cheers John

There is a Ian Myres guys who rebuilds engines on the A59 towards York about a mile after the Skipbridge petrol station if you know it (just before where they do the grasstracking) he used to do but not sure if retired) Came highly recommended to me from some classic car owners I know.

Just googled him and this is him LINKY

Or

maybe pop round to Fairdeal Motors on Manse Lane in Knaresborough and ask who they use, they are a good set of lads who I'm sure wont mind.

Where in Knaresborough are you m8?

Cheers
