if my circumstances saves 1 person from repeating what i've been through, it's all worth it.

i've been working rather closely with the owner/machinist doing the work. i'm over there a couple times a week, @ least.
the worked head pressure checks good. believe it or not the intake valves were NOT bent. although there is/was a pretty good scratch on the stem just below the keeper grove on all of them. he was able to polish them up pretty good though. btw, these are +2mm Int/+1.86mm Exh Ferrea Valves for future reference. he needs to order some shop tooling, so looks like it'll be next week before he clays the head and makes the necessary adjustments to the valve reliefs.

nah, Cory. they're cp's. and when comparing the 92mm's to the new 87mm's, the extra mm's so to speak, have been added to the "outside" of the diameter. so the reliefs are in the same place on the dome. just more meat from the relief to the edge of the piston.

I just thought I remember Charles saying some different pistols. I'm probably confused with another build
