a light polish of the valve stems first ( any fine emery cloth ) check the valves in their respective dry to verify there are no tight spots. any engine type assembly lube. (not white grease) be sure to push the lubed stem in/out/around a ton to prevent any dry spots. .002'' clearance on both is SAFE. I like a Viton rubber/positive seal on the intake and a rubber umbrella on the exh. (compcams has a beauty vioton/steel jacket we use on the intake with various dia. guide o.d.)
