Default Valve Clearance Issues for the 2nd time

I'm sure Mr. HP, Ron Wood, Preacher (don't know if he even knows that everyone on the forums calls him that [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] ), On Dunes has a guy and so does TVI.

As for the parts: Mr HP, The Bom, On Dunes, TVI, Ron Wood, Kibblewhite, Bombardier will all have them.

Depending on wear you will need the following parts:
Bottom retainer
Valve spring
Top retainer
Valve seal (replace every time you pull a valve)
Bronze valve guide (depending on if you have had broken springs. They are probably fine (wish I could say the same ;( )
Assortment of valve shims or thick valve shim and a knife sharpening stone and some patience.

You will need a new head gasket too = $50 about

Call these guys for pricing on the rest of the parts.

Let me know (send me a PM) if you need Preacher's number. When my last set of valve springs failed he put in new bronze guides, lapped the valves and put in the new retainers and springs. He will be doing it again as soon as I get the parts.

Most race gas is leaded so, if you run race gas you are running leaded fuel.
