Default Re: Tommy Sizemore - Cylinder Head RIP OFF

I am not defending the guy since I don't know him but....

I have all the same tooling for doing heads and his videos may look crude and he may sound like a redneck but the work he is doing is not a whole lot different than how I did heads for years and years.

Sure you'd love to think your heads were being done in modern super accurate machines but trust me you can get very good results using all hand tools on a bench.....

A few machines can add up to a huge investment and produce poor results in the hands of an incompetent person.

I've taken brand new heads out of the box with Serdi type machine cut seats and they were so far out it was ridiculous.

I fixed them with "old School" seat grinding equipment.....Kwikway stones and hand held grinder on aluminum heads with hard seats.....a real pain to do and tedious and time consuming.....and always was...

So maybe the guy is a ripoff artist and a hick but the processes he shows are how I have done many, many heads with good results.

One machine I have seen.....A Newen can do seats and valve pocket work all CNC......Costs around $100 grand I believe...

Thats gonna take a lot of valve jobs to payoff !!!

Maybe I should go back into the head business....


I like the spray welding vids.....never did that process myself....
