Getting my head machined
 

no advice on the head...but get the 77 nova running again anyway :)

If the head is off, then a day or two at most, but if they have to pull it off too, then maybe a week, because of the time it take to do stuff in a shop.

Just ask around for the best machine shop in your area. 7M heads are long, aluminum, and have bucket style valve adjusts. Not many like them, so the machinist must know what he's doing.

Also, make sure they pressure check it for cracks, and resurface it.
