As JAK said find a shop that can straighten aluminum heads, here's a link http://www.4-lesco.com/folder2/Shop9L.html to our cylinder head straightening oven, it's probably the smartest purchase we ever made! You shim the head at each end from 1 to 2 times the amount of warpage and clamp it down in the middle, while heating it to no more more than 300 degrees. An automotive machine shop that is savvy enough to have a straightening oven would probably have a CBN cutting system for resurfacing aluminum heads correctly as well. Dave
