Got a set of heads in to get a valve job.

Looks like prior service installed the wrong exhaust valve, (explains why it was failing leak down test :-(

I now need the install height of the valve to complete for the Machine Shop

to complete the valve job.

I've scoured the manuals - but can't find any specification.

Anyone able to help?

thanks,

Mike

Jake's the man --- he emailed me 1.690-1.700 for both exhaust and intake.

Figure I would post it here in the unlikely event someone else needs it and can find this thread in the archives.

cheers,

Mike
