Can anyone recommend an engineer builder around the east midland area?
I've got hold of a spare cylinder head which I need skimming, porting, polish etc.
Finding it really hard to find anyone never mind one with a good rep.

I second Neil Roper, did an excellent job on my zetec head for good money. Great guy too and very knowledgeable - used to do F1 heads many moons ago I think.
