The Ford Barn - View Single Post - For those who have ordered stainless steel valves...

Thank you Richard for your input.

Richard was rebuilding Model A engines back when the Model A was still a "daily car." You taught me much of what I know about Model A engines - including having the crank ground by someone familiar with the rather "sensitive" Model A crank - and not some engine rebuilder out of the phone book.

We learn by ALL our experiences - including the challenges we unwittingly bring upon ourselves.

I'll be in touch on our previous crack-pin task after the snowbank melts.

Best regards,
Joe K
