Hi, I need to get some work done on my Cylinder Head. It's an MG Metro spec 12G940, which I need to have the following done, for my turbo build:

- chambers enlarged to 26cc
- converted to unleaded
- bronze guides
- stainless valves
- some mild porting to remove restrictions

Can anyone recommend anywhere to get this done for a reasonable price? I contacted Turbo Phil, but he can't fit the work in at the moment. I know there are plenty of shops that can do a head refurb, but when it comes to enlarging chambers, I'd rather have it done by someone that knows what they are doing with A-Series Turbos.

1994 Mini Mayfair, 1330, Mspd Ph2 cam, Benross turbo head, 9:1, GT1752, TT Intercooler, MegaJolt, BMW M3 leather seats.

PM BENROSS he may be able to help.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Phil or Steve (Benross), wouldn't trust anybody else with it as they know what they're doing as you say.

Phil has done my last two heads, the work and help with the spec has been great. Plus they both delivered the goods on the car with proven up increases at the rolling road.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!
