Nice work!I'm always interested to see how others do their valve assemblies.- what material are the valve seats made from?- did you lap the valves in a dedicated seating pot or the valves within their respective seats- how about your vacuum test, do you look for a long term hold or if it decays to ambient after X amount of time?- what kind of lapping compound?
