Got a head gasket to see what I can remove around the valves........not much is there? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve just concentrated on cylinder 1 ports for now, see what it measures at once I’m happy enough with it, then copy over to the others. I’ve taken out quite a bit of metal so far just by removing cast marks and blending stuff in. The exhaust valve, I’ve opened up the throat some, it’s tight...
