Chipped Valve(s)?? 92 h23
 

Ok, I am taking apart my aquired engine to inspect it. I've got a question about several of the valves. They look chipped, and they feel chipped, but is it really chipped, or is just the carbon build up? Also, about the carbon build up, is there any way for me to clean this area? Any recommendations?

well, it looks like it might just be carbon that has flaked off. Clean the valves and then take a look for damage. If they are damaged i have a h23 head with valves that is in great condition i can sell you

yeah my buddy just bought a B18c1 head adn had ALOT of carbon on it, and it made it look all kinds of F*cked up. but after cleaning mmmm mm it looked nice, CHK4TIX is right clean it up and look for damage, most likely it will be fine, good luck
