Pfft... real men let their valves make the clearance they need.
Nice work!Comment

I'm fascinated with this project, even though I've never done anything even close to this! You must be planning a pretty aggressive cam!
How well do valves like that cut? I've only seen ones with commercial cutting edges.Comment

Sweeet.. Wanna see numbers!Current:
\'87 Fiero GT: 12.86@106 - too dam many valves; ran 12.94 @ 112 on new engine, then broke a CV joint
\'88 Fiero Formula: slow and attention getting; LZ8 followed by LLT power forthcoming
\'88 BMW 325iX: The penultimate driving machine awaiting a heart transplant
Gone, mostly forgotten:
\'90 Pontiac 6000 SE AWD: slow but invisibleComment

I know why you cut the pistons, but what is with the valves being notched like that? I have never seen that before.
Edit: wait was that to cut the pistons by spinning the valves in an old head? I just realized the picture with them in a head was an old head.Comment
