Porsche Rebuilt Cylinder Heads by Model
The failure of you Porsche's cylinder head could be a very costly repair. A new replacement Porsche cylinder head can cost upward of $4000. The rebuilt specialists at Vertex have develop a rebuilt procedure that restores your cylinder head to as good as new for a fraction of the cost of a new cylinder head.
Vertex's Porsche Rebuilt Cylinder Head Process:
Each
Porsche cylinder head core is disassembled and inspected for broken bolts,
stripped thread holes and broken mounting holes, etc. All cylinder heads go
through a three-step cleaning process which includes:
1) Passing through a high temperature oven.
2) Professionally bead blasted.
3) Placement in a non-caustic hot tank.
The
Head is then inspected for cracks & pressure tested. Cam bores are
checked for spec and honed if needed. Note: No major welding work is
ever done!
The machining process includes;
·
Inspect valve guide bores using a dial bore gauge and repair where needed.
·
New OEM German Phosphorous Bronze Valve Guides & Valve Stem Seals are installed
·
All valve seats are cut, not ground, using three angle cuts for maximum precision.
·
The valves are inspected for stem and valve face damage and/or wear, as well as straightness.
·
All valves are hand ground and/or replaced as needed.
·
Thoroughly inspect and test all of the valve springs for proper tension / resistance and replaced as needed.
·
All head surfaces are machined (milled), not ground!
Final
cleaning and assembly includes; First we clean all your Porsche cylinder heads in a solvent base
tank in which all oil galleries, thread holes, etc. are cleaned. A
number of different brushes are used to catch any remaining
contaminants. All cylinder heads are then run through a detergent based hot tank
before assembly. All assembly work is done by hand by Professional and
Expert Porsche Specialists. For more information call us at: 1(866)668-0660
