Herein, do cylinder heads need resurfacing?Cylinder heads and blocks may need to be resurfaced to restore flatness or to improve the surface finish, or milled to change the deck height for a variety of reasons. The deck surface on the head or block may need to be resurfaced if the surface isn’t smooth or flat.Beside above, do Subaru heads need to be resurfaced? yes you CAN resurface your own heads. And it’s not even that hard. Especially with Subaru heads because they are aluminium and very small. This time I took some pictures of the end result, the rig that does the job, and some pictures durring the process that show the progression from warped/pitted to smooth and flat. Accordingly, how much does a machine shop cost? The average machine shop in the U.S. charges $60-80/hour.Why would you skim a cylinder head?Skimming is the resurfacing of the cylinder head mating surface to bring it back into tolerance and create the perfect sealing finish. This is done by removing a layer of metal from the cylinder head mating surface.
