[beefman]

I would call Corey Staples and ask him.

i talked to him to day and he sead to call butler mcmaster they gave me the run around and sead that the block needs to be done to and sead that i dont no what im talking about thats it not the right way to do it.and they guy was mocking me in the back ground:wtf2:

Some people do ring the block, but the head will work as good. My uncle used to do his own years ago on big block chevys. The only other thing that comes to mind is PDR.:dunno: Is butler the one that does Coreys work?? I would have assumed he has had a bunch done for customers. Maybe he buys the heads with the work already done.

call Ben at northeast performance diesel, he'll take care of you without any BS. www.northeastperformancediesel.com

btw, i don't think you do the block unless you're doing firerings (mark?) which may the route you want to go. any warpage to the head or block?

i talked to that bangor fuel systems guy years ago and wasn't too impressed. being treated with respect and kindness is worth more than cheap price (we all hav eto make a living) when it comes to something that's a hobby for me. that's why i recommend ben to anyone that needs work done

Corey grew up here in my town. His parents still live here. He has always been good to me. He can make some serious power too. He is the tuner that worked on the truck that went to new hampshire this spring and ran 1000 horsepower.:smokin:

firerings, you can split the difference in protrusion between the head and the block like marks, or you can do just the head like warpigs. Only benefit I see to doing both is by doing just the head you will probably have a wear mark on the block from the ring where if you had both done on a second go round it would end up sealing better.
Also the block that came with my 01 had orings machined into it. Guess if you ever need to pull the head again and have it machined its one less thing you would have to pay to do over again.

I know Corey quite well and he is a stand up guy. Actually all the guys at DFS are really nice and helpful.
