340 X Head Valve Options

I was going to tell you you need adjustables with those shorter valves, but that looks like a very doable valve setup. Did the PRW's come with hardened shafts? The roller bearings eat up soft stock shafts. Only bad thing I have heard from that style roller is the roller tip bearing or bushing has reportedly come apart and littered the motor with hardened fragments, but that could be an isolated incident. Also, the beehive springs, are they the same diameter at the base than the double springs you took out? That is important that the springs seat nicely in the head, the doubles should have an extra step down there for the inner springs, didnt notice.

The PRW's came with hardened shafts. I read about the rocker tip problems, but decided to risk if for the price. I believe the diameter of the base of the beehive springs are smaller than the diameter of the base of the stock springs. So I will have to mill the seats, but I will have to mill the seats anyway to get my spring install height.

Still have not had a chance to start machining on these heads. Started a new job this week and putting down new flooring in the house, you know... the same reasons we all have trouble getting these projects done.
