Armed with the new heads, I wanted to get everything to a machine shop to get checked out and cleaned up for the rebuild. I stripped my 302 down to the block and crank to have it mic'd out at the machine shop and take the necessary steps to clean it up to prep it for the rebuild. Once the block was taken down, I took it and the heads to the local machine shop, R&B Machine Shop (actually, it was the only one I could find). Everyone I had talked to had given them a solid recommendation.
I went over the plan for the block and the engine build and told them what all I wanted done (hot tank, honed, new cam bearings, crank mic'd and polished, flywheel resurfaced, heads hot tanked before I port/polish them).
It will be two-three weeks before I get it back.
I was really happy to see forged pistons inside of this engine:
