Things are progressing, albiet slowly. It turns out that all valves, but two intake valves were bent. Here is the worst exhaust valve.
Head is in the shop. It's all clean now and pressure tested fine. Amazing that all the guides are ok. So are all the pistons I hope. I will inspect them closer this weekend when I take the lower end out. I can then look for wear on the rod and main bearings.
I got a box of parts today. Chain, guides, head rebuild kit, head bolts, but no valves and only one set of seals.
I will have to call about that tomorrow. I was hoping to give the shop all the parts on Monday.
Well, the family is here with a movie and popcorn and I just got home from work. Popcorn for dinner is fine with me.
God Bless America!
