Woohoo!  Just got my cylinders back from Lycon!  Man, they are frickin' bee-yoo-tee-full!  Ported & polished intakes & exhausts.  Polished domes.  All heads flow balanced.  Heads grit-blasted and alodined.  Cylinders stripped & repainted.  New exhaust valves (triple-ground), guides & seats.  Intake valves triple-ground.  All valves & seats lapped.  Cylinder assemblies pressure checked.  New 10:1 pop-up pistons.
 
Lycon does really nice work.  Even my A&P, who overhauls/rebuilds several engines a month, was impressed.  Lycon says the new set-up is good for 20 hp easy, probably more.  You 360 drivers better watch out! (Larry Henney has already called me out!)  Here are some pix...
