We use a Sunnen SGM-1500 machine (see below)
- All guides are checked using Sunnen Dial P310 Valve Guide Gauge Set for taper and trueness
- All guides are replaced using the .030 bronze
Guide Liner, then honed to size.
- Valve seats are replaced with hardened inserts
- Valve seats are cut using multi-angle cutter in the Sunnen SGM-1500 giving the valve-to-seat concentricity to industry standard
or lower (industry standard is .001 per valve head size; 2.00 valve head should be no more than .002 concentricity)
- All valve seats are cut exactly the same and also maintain the same height in the chamber
- All valve seat pockets are cut to the same depth to maintain spring squareness and installed heights (out of square spring
pockets cause abnormal valve guide wear)
- Valves seal bosses are lowered for added lift and re-cut for positive seals
- Installation of screw-in studs
- Installation of .500 guides, bronze or cast
- Installation of beryllium copper seat inserts for titanium valves
- Pinning or welding for cracked heads (aluminum cast)
- Installation of push rod sleeves
- Match cc of all combustion chambers
- Porting and polishing
- Checking RMS for proper surface finish
- Resurfaing heads
- O-Ringing heads
- Correcting intake angles
- Angle milling
- All valves are re-ground to correct angles and lapped to seats using a power lapping tool
- All springs are installed to correct spring heights
