Yes there is a company that does the head work his dad is going to lap the valves into the seats and put it back together.
i don't know what that costs but the part's so far are reasonable gaskets valves seats and guides about a hundred haven't priced a timing chain yet it runs in their family his dad didn't change the fuel line on this 200x that was cherry lol it belonged to my late brother in law sat for about twenty years that vp racing fuel burns kinda hot :(View attachment 57821
Don't lap them. The valve faces are hard coated. If you you lap the coating off you will be replacing them in short order.

Yes sir. I have a local guy that does it for me cheap. He's real good too. Builds stock car motors and stuff.
I wish he was near me lol. That is all that is holding me up, I already put a big bore kit on it now I just need to get the head done. The guy that normally does it around here is going thru a divorce and is on the bottle hard right now.

All i see is pain the 350x will flip or front roll before you have time to cuss.
We used to haul a$s through the woods on those three wheelers. Probably kill myself if I tried it now. Lol

I would like to find a 350x to mess around with.

Around here just this guy for the dirt bikes and atvs, I may need to start looking farther away cause I'm ready to ride.
I sent my 400ex head out to be ported and new valves years ago. I can't begin to remember what the name of the place was.

Do you still have the 400ex?
Nope. I quit racing when we had the boys. Traded it to a buddy of mine for a LT80 and some cash. Now all I have is a Honda Rubicon and the boys have a 300ex the lt80 and they each have a dirt bike. I keep thinking about getting a bike to ride with them.
