I recently had my head for a SR20DET built. There were two things I noticed when I got it back from the machine shop.... First of all, they didn't change the freeze plugs. How hard would it be to change these myself? Secondly, the valve seats were not reinstalled. I used a Ferrera valve spring kit with spring locaters. Is it common not to reinstall the valve seats with this kit?
I am getting ready to send my block away as well. I have been searching forums for possibly some tips on what I should have done. Some of the suggestions were:
boring and honing with a torque plate
have the oil galleys and oil passages sandblasted and cleaned
have the crank oil holes drilled out and plugged
Are these some of the things I should definetly do to my block? Any other tips or things that I should have done would be a great help.
