turbo Grant Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 With the head did they put larger valve seats in or just cut them bigger? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abbott Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) With the head did they put larger valve seats in or just cut them bigger?Grant they have cut them in. Is yours still running the big valve hesd that aze got done? Edited July 16, 2013 by abbott Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I thought they looked liked they had been cut bigger. I've not got the big valve head on my car. The reason the broke the car is one if the cams snapped and they broke the car. But the machine shop build them up another head for cheap that they sold on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abbott Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Little more of an update on the head.Head work machining, skimming is now done, valves lapped in and now just measurements for the buckets to order and once they arrive the engine cam be finishedHeres the pics of what Rob sent me today Quote Link to post Share on other sites
