I've been following this cylinder head height thread with some interest, being in the middle of a rebuild, and after having had the good ol' boy machinist I'm trying to train to take too much off when all I needed was a "cleanup" (now 111.6mmm).It is always good to measure valve to piston clearance. Put modeling clay on the piston tops, assemble the engine, time the cams, gently turn it over a couple of turns, take the head back off and measure the clearances. Ciao, Russ Neely
