Well add me to the list of dropped valve seats. Number 2, Intake.
I know we just kicked this around not long ago but I need some advice. I
have a spare 140 in the basement. I am about to pull the heads on that
engine and see what shape they are in. I am thinking I will have all the
valve seats replaced. I spent about $400 on the last heads and only got 4K
out of it. I did not replace the valve seats.
Anyway, Clark's sells valve seats in +.005, +.010 and +.030. Do these
require the holes in the heads to be enlarged to accept the new seats or can
they all be pressed into a stock head? Any recommendations as to which
oversize to use?
Thanks,
