Where does one get this repaired? I know Huit had one repaired that was in similar condition.

Why is it so often the V head? My damage from two or more years ago. Exhaust hit hard, and beat everything up inside. Looked like someone took a claw hammer to it. Was going to toss it, then decided to treat is as a welding experiment. Not sure how much more I will "worry" it, but close to putting in the seats and guides. No - I am not saying to send to me. But I did not know who could fix this either, so..... MikeV

Some experienced welder is bent over in laughter, or crying.

Ouch! That is a good one. And, of course, it is the scarcer vertical head. MikeV

Welcome to the club!
I keep my Holey piston and valve head above my bench as a painful reminder.
Hope the rest is ok Wolf!

Aren’t you in So Cal Johnny? The land of the hotrod? Can’t find anyone down there who can repair a mess like this? MikeV
