By the way on my restrictor plate engines and sprint car alcohol engines I run .0007 on the intake and .0010 on the exhaust with no seals .
Laz thanks for the Info. Like you said if you get them straight and round they want have any tight spots .Its hard to depend on a local shop . I guess you have to trust them .It would not be cost feasible for someone like me to buy all these tools then learn how to use them .If I did that I couldn't afford all that BEER
Laz it sounds like you have done a little of everything with motors
