Can someone please describe a three angle valve job for me or better yet...draw a pix of one...I ordered one from my machinist and I don't think I got it...my valves seem to have just one cut face angle...Are the cuts just on the exhaust/intake or both? I need some edimication!!!... Regards
Brian

The valves and valve seat should have three distinct grind angles, the center
or main (the face the valve seats on head) should be the widest, then the other
two should be thinner (above and below the main face) and are there mainly to allow a little better air flow.
