RHDSP15C Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 That sort of brings back memories. In the 60 s I worked at a plant that made small engines for lawnmowers. Considerable time was lost in lapping valves on the line until we found that the Ford Plant making Falcon engines didn't bother. The engineers at Ford designed the angle of the valve to be one degree less than the seat. We never lapped another vlave after that. Quote

Bodacious Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 Regarding the original question, interference valve angles have been used in engines forever. Your machinist should know just what to do. Quote
