[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 11530454, member: 20202"] I noted some of the valves on my heads (after only 16,000 miles) were not seating around the entire circumference of the seats (half the seat was polished white the other half was brown :dw:). The guides are tight with about .002" endplay which makes me wonder if Ford used the valve guides to locate the seat cutter. They were enough of them to lead me to believe they cut the seats independent of the guides which may explain the crappy seal on many of the factory valve installation. This will get resolved when I get my seats re-cut. [/QUOTE]
