There is a small chamfer on the lobes, but it is small. It has no burrs on it at all. Ill add the kit to the list. I read that some of the early valves had problems mushrooming. How do I know if I will have issues with that problem?

Lots of little quirks to work out on this beast. Wonder if I can pick up a complete engine with all the mods done. So I can ride this beast. I can take the time to do the engine I have right. Who sells complete engines?

We blue and hand scrape bearings at work, but sounds like there needs to be some tight tollerances to hold oil for weeks. We use carbide for the scraping. As far as the case, there is an updated bearing that is wider? Or why the machining? How do I find the right case?

With this sticky bucket, he mics the bore, and hand scrapes the small spot? I cant find anything on the issue, other than that it is an issue. How much of this stuff do you guys do yourselves? Im in it to learn. I dont mind having to replace a few things here and there. Got to learn somehow.
