Back from the machine shop... surface was machined .002", isn't that pretty, and ready to accept a metal gasket.
Now carrying the exhaust 3 angle(bowl closest), and as you can see the intake 3 angle is still good, so I used a tiny bit of lapping paste to get the intake seats and valves mated Clover lapping paste on left, Permetex/NAPA valve grinding compound on right... think of the Clover as a polish that polish helped reveal..... a tiny bit more performance may be available with a back cut on the intakes. That is for another day/head. the red arrow is pointing to the top of the seat-valve contact point, so the dotted green lines represents a bit of room for a simple, clean back cut. Finally, my client asked me if I could do something to better accommodate his use of ARP studs.... Look back at the first pic in this post to see the bolt hole before..... more to come.....

from another forum Wrote:I enjoy reading the detail in your threads but not being an engine builder guy I probably understand less than half of what you're saying...:confused: I use an epoxy filled spark plug with the ground electrode removed. This gives me a consistent measure. Yes - a "colder" plug will often times have a bit more room around the positive electrode, effectively increasing the chambers volume. multiple angle valve seats - Air flowing past with minimal eddy currents. A steep angle on any of these faces and tiny eddy currents can cause poorer flow. I've recently heard about a 7 angle... yes 7 angle valve seats... can't find a pic, but here is a 5 angle.... http://www.d-series.org/forums/attachmen...5angle.jpg now if your machinist has the capability, this is what is often the top of the line for flow past the valve, it is a radius valve job - http://rennlist.com/forums/attachments/9...t-pic3.jpg the only flat surface on there is the small area where the valve contacts the seat, the rest is a radius Dan - You can | ....

I realized that I needed a new support system to assemble this head... and so now that the port work, the valve job and the machine work are complete, assembly follows....... the nut driver under the head was my seal installation driver today The 2nd new tool can be seen supporting the head. so here is the 1st new tool (9/30/2015 post) up close, in "action" and fitting the last valve.... assembled.... waiting for its owner.
