I've bought all the bottom end bits but am wondering if I should rebuild all or part of the head, any thoughts?

Thanks

You don't seem to get many posts on here about top end problems it's all at the bottom   s:D :D s:D  .

However, whilst it's off, a skim, larger valves, stiffer springs, hotter cams new manifolds   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  

Seriously, loads of engineering firms around that will quote you for a skim, any welding, valve seats, new valves etc. etc. No idea what they charge these days though but it may be cheaper than you think.
