----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- Well, All Glen has a point kind of. My Father was a supporter of MMO. But he used it in both. I on the other hand I seldom us it. But Glen your comment on old cyl. I think is off base. And the comment by Lynn I think I have to question also if I understand what he said. I not sure I did. First the only problem with sticking Valve I have ever had was on a 0 time engine. After the break in was done. (new glides etc.) I don't think the comment on old cyl. holds water. When your cyl. are 80/80. New or old makes no difference. Now for Lynns comment on reaming your valve guild. The way I think he said it is that the fellow said to ream them out to full spec. With spec. you have a +/- If you ream to full + all wear will put them out of spec. So I hope he was implying to the - spec. Also someone said something about reamer wearing and that it would cause the clearance to be off. Man your talking about a sh** load of reaming to do that. And there are adjustable reamer that go to +/- to get just the size you want. As posted before Cyl heads are the first to go. High temp and a lot up and downs on them small moving part. And I'll give Glen credit on old cyl with lots of time or that have been sitting around may cause problems. But a cyl because of it age, NOT.
