    My heads are finally finished and on their way back to me. I got some pictures in an email of the final product. They ended up going to Merkel for the head lift fix as well. The block needs to go to the machine shop next and a few misc parts need to be purchased and fabricated. Hopefully will be running again in the next few months!

    Glad to hear you're getting them back. IPS is certainly tainted at this point, but I know the process on those heads and they are very well done. Can't wait to see this project come to life!

    yeah I hope whoever holds the rights to their cnc program will continue to sell in some form. Their heads looked beautiful. Although there is always DR's, but I'd like to have my crap work for a while first.

    Thanks man. Your car was one of my biggest inspirations on this. Hopefully I can mine to spool quicker and make the same or better numbers.

    I know what shop does them, though I'm not sure if they will continue to do them or if I'm allowed to say lol.

    Based on their prices on other heads you would probably come out 1/2 the cost going direct rather than sending to ips

    They took 3S's off their main page. You can still search "3000gt (whatever)" and parts will show up, so I'm not sure what that means.
