No going back now

I had only intended to clean up the gasket surfaces on my aluminum 113 heads but I couldn't help myself. I just got the rough cut done on 1 of them. I'll post more pics when they're finished.

All finished! This was my first attempt at polishing anything. It took about 20hrs using a right angle die grinder with some 3M 2 inch scotchbrite discs to cut the rough cast off them and a Dremel with polishing kit and 3 different types of polishing compound to get to this point.
