RE: OST-054: 3 rib with snap
14 of the 16 valves came in too tight for my shim bank (.001" variance from .110"-.125"), so I brought them back to the machine shop to get tipped (shortened) so they would be in my shim banks shim range.

As you can see the valves got tipped by different amounts, from as little as .003", to a "big" .012".


Final assembly will have all the intake valves with a clearance of .008"(0.203mm), and all the exhausts clearances at .009"(0.228mm).
