  I have all our heads at Vintage Motorsports done at Fetter's Racing Engines.
  He and I have set up special tooling to do the Corvair head correctly. We also have a special fixture to stake valve seats so they will never come out. All our racing Corvair head & crank work are done there.

  Jeff,

When I was doing my rebuild I sent my heads from NJ to Larry's
Corvair in CA. They did an excellent job. I even had all the valve
seats replaced. I think you can get more info at
http://www.larryscorvair.com/ Good luck

I'm up to my elbows in a full rotisserie restoration of my 65 Corsa
Turbo Coupe. Got the engine torn down and everything looks pretty 
good.
I want to get the heads gone over, but don't really feel right 
about
taking it to my local machine shop for this specialized work on 
these
matching number heads. So I'm looking for recommendations from the
group. Checking in the "Communique", I see one in East Arlington, 
VT
and another in Lockport, NY. I don't want to send my heads to an
unknown and have it kill my schedule to have the car done for the
Buffalo Nationals this year. Thanks...
