    Removing Actuator from Turbo?

    You should be able to bend the pin back with needle nose pliers the pin at the end of the rod coming out of the actuator. Once the pin is straight pull it out with the pliers. You shouldn’t have to remove the elbow, but that depends on witch way the pin is facing.

    WOW< Just got the bill for head work!!

    It was kind of my falt I guess then, I should have doubled checked everything with him on the valve cutting. But again when I asked him about it (valve cutting) Jim said it would be much more since the head is already apart, so I figured maybe a xtra c-note or 2, but again not to double...

    Wow, is this in your driver, or do you race your car? I guess $2k for the head is a hell of a deal then. IJ what do you all have done to your head? Im just trying to see how one can spend $7k+ on the head alone.
