Re: stocker valve jobs
hey thanks for the response. i'm not trying to knock anyones skill level,i was just curious on the difference between the two tools.and i'll be frank there is a superstock car in the area that he did the valve job on and picked the car up nearly a tenth and a half faster from it's best lap. and i've talked to him about diffrent combo's and he talked about how he did different things with angle's for different makes and how certain things you could do with the old .250 rule. i 've watched him do a set of heads that took him nearly two weeks just for the valve job itself. even tho he's old school and he don't do alot of engine's because his business is other after market stuff he keeps up with the changes of today,just do valve jobs by hand. his biggest thing for the stocker stuff is rpm's. he talk about reversion a lot with the stocker stuff and other things that you can do with the heads and intake.he also was explaning to me about lifter bore align ment how you use certain type of lifters in certain bores and make power oil pan work ring packadges special type of honing he also talked about rods and piston combos how u can move the off center bore for better angle less drag .i'm not an engine bulider but i can build an engine per say, by that i mean i'm trying to learn more about the fine art of race engine building,and by the way i would love to learn from mr adgar smith i've seen the name for a lot of yrs would be an honor to meet you.mr smith if you were to do my heads what would the price be for a complete set, and to do the block also , i have the pistons rods crank bullett cam no bearings main or rod .what would the damage be.
