Re: Valves
When installing new valves they should be faced and the seats clean cut/ground. I can't recommend just plooping in new valves.
Why not check the lash on what you have and let us know what they are.
Doing the same to your old valves[ facing and cutting seats] decreases the lash. Any old auto shop with a dusty old valve grinding machine sitting in the corner can do the job or probably would be glad to sell it to you. On the right end of it is a holder and micrometer for cutting the stem. Once the lash is know [after cutting the face and seat] you have a good idea how much needs to be taken off the stem, if any.
