You can use a radiused cutter. That's not illegal.

Re: U/SA 302 ffffford build
Glenn, I am referring to the angle that is built into the valve.
Always fun to go into a teardown with a Pontiac and watch them pick up the 45 deg. angle gauge and place it on your intake valve. ;-)

Re: U/SA 302 ffffford build
My Citation HO 2.8 came stock with 5 angles..That made tech nuts, for sure, at that time

Re: U/SA 302 ffffford build
Quite confusing but I believe it's any valve angle allowed.

I think that I'll start a thread in the tech section. This needs to be discussed.

First of all, how would they check the guide angle? Have you ever been through a tear down where they actually gauge the valve head sealing angle built into the valve? I have been..Many times, and that used to be what that phrase meant. Today? Who knows?

Re: U/SA 302 ffffford build
And then? Did they check the sealing face angle of the valve...any one of those three times

Re: U/SA 302 ffffford build
Mark, no disrespect intended, please read the rulebook, it says any valve job allowed so they don't check valve angles that I know of..my apologies for taking over this thead, I'd much rather talk about the 79 mustang build..
