PM brent clement. He can tell you in PM if you ask him (that's how I got 'em). Can't post prices directly on the forum 'cause of vendor policy IIRC.

The hardening dulls the finish that's all. The rb irons look the same way. And as stated, pm me if you would like pricing. Thank you.

Is it me or can you still make out the old wear marks just below the porting.

If you haven't seen them yet, I got a pair from JHB already and more coming this week.





I sent a set of badly worn out 12A irons to Brent to get resurfaced and hardened. They turned out great.
I already sent another set of Full bridge ported 13B RE irons to him to get the same treatment.



I'm planning on sending him my 13B RE irons too from my motor to get resurfaced and hardened. I'll be using the JHB Ceremt B housings and JHB's Thermal Coated S5 T2 rotors in my motor this year.
I'll let everyone know how all these internal mods stand up to all the abuse when I tear the motor apart next winter!

Ya I still want a set. But expensive for me to try out and see how it stands up. I would love to run it in solosprint and see how it holds up to boost. LOL We will see. Looking into a motor for next year. BUt its all about time and $.
I still want to see them. I just yesturday held in my hands new mazda housings. Would be neat to compare.

They're all resurfaced to the finish you see in the first pic in the thread. There are absolutely no wear marks of any kind left.

The irons I got back from Brent were hardened. I still have to clean them up.
The engine is getting built today and is going back to NY this weekend.

I am sure the pictures don't give it justice. Hope I did not come across wrong.

Talking

It's all good. I'm happy to answer any questions, just wanted to make sure everyone knows that there is no wear left behind. Didn't mean to be rude just to the point. They definitely look prettier before hardening however if I grind them again it does nothing for the finish but make them shiny and it would remove some of the hardened surface.
