Re: Valve grinding on an sv650?

I'd run it and see what happens, if it has good compression and makes good power... be reet.

I'd assemble it with valve clearances to top end of clearance and check again after 10 hours or so of running and probably again after 600 mile.

The valve stem seals keep the oil in the cam box and not puffing out of the exhaust.

Doesn't he know it
