All of the exhaust valves were replaced. AllThe pic in post 177. And only able to go by the pic but the two valve look like different brands. The chamfer is different, as is the colour. If they are different brands, then they might use different lock designs, & the position on the valve stem could also be different, which could explain the differences in the pic. If this is so, then there may be nothing wrong with those two valve assys, but they should be checked considering the other anomalies that have been found.
the intakes were cleaned up. Definitely looks
to be two different style valves. Checked locks
on each and they look be their same
respective depths.
We did find a difference in installed spring
heights between the new exhaust valves
and the existing intake valves. An average
of the exhaust being .03 higher. Could this
be the magic bullet? We're gonna spin the
engine over and try this again. Would you
happen to know what the distance is
supposed to be between coils (installed).?
The one thing that has me scratching my head,
the passenger side is quiet with the changes
we've made.
