[SEL] Valve guides

[Richard Strobel]

Jeff..on the 5 hp Galloway, we just built new valve stems and then had the 
valves ground.  I fear now the intake might be a little tight tho but better 
that way than the other.  Valve guides to me would have been quite 
expensive.  One of these days I hope to have a valve grinding machine(s).

 Good Luck

Hello all,

As you all know the Sattley project has started. Any thoughts on 
reconditioning the valve guides and clearance on them are welcome. I'm 
leaning towards modern thin wall bronze guides. No rocket science here. I 
have .125 and that's way too much in my opinion. That is how much it moves 
on one end. Thanks.
