    Cylinder head back from the machine shop! Valve stems next?

    Your cylinder head looks very clean! I found a local Toyota MDT to work on doing the valve seals after a lot of advice from everyone here. He's a pretty cool guy and used to own a few 80 series himself

    Cylinder head back from the machine shop! Valve stems next?

OTRAMM and NKP Garage on YouTube seemed thorough, and honestly with my lack of knowledge I trusted the shop to do what was right. I...

    Cylinder head back from the machine shop! Valve stems next?

    That's what I was thinking, but the machine shop guy was so adamant about leaving it alone and leaving the valves in for the resurface... Looks like he dented the side of the head too, it sure as hell wasn't there when I dropped it off.

    Cylinder head back from the machine shop! Valve stems next?

    Just got my cylinder head back from the machine shop today and they told me they cut 0.006 off. According to this post, my head is toast..? The shop recommended me to not mess/replace the valve stems and to not clean the carbon on the valves. I've talked to a Toyota Master Mechanic and he said...
