ok did abit of head work today , "cylinder head" before you ask.......... flowed and smoothed out the throats  , , ,,, i probally could of done abit more but im not spending another day behind the die grinder !!, i then pressed in the bullet nose bronze valve guides and reamed them out , , i then cut the seats with a 3 angle cutter but didnt go down to the 30 degree as not to sure how much to sink the valves at the moment, the valves are 36 inlet and 32 exhaust, , , next with the head, using the valve seat cutter, im going to cut a radius around the exhaust valve to de shroud it up to the headgasket, and maybe the same with the inlet depending on room , more updates soon byee
