400/450 stroker....Cheap parts, lotta work.

is it my eyeball or is that tip on that exhaust valve angled.
I'm going to adjust my eyeballs and come back for another look before Jim replies.
Gimme a break. Don't all the good engine builders run a 12 degree angle on the exhaust valve tips?

Or it's just a distortion in the lens angle.

Sheesh!


Have you flowed the intake ports? Numbers? Int valves look like 2.19"?
1) We've flowed all 16 ports maybe a 1/2 dozen times at least.
2) No flow numbers will be given.
3) As noted in post #23 we are using some 2.20/1.84 valves. The valves were an ordering mistake I made that have lain around for many, many years and we just decided to save some money and get rid of them by using them in this engine.
