I have a b18c1 head that is getting a pnp,i was planning on do a valve job,is there a better kind of valve job i understand about the the 3+5 angle vjobs,but is one better for a boosted application than the other ? also im buying parts now and thinking about valves would that be worth it or no,if anyone knowsgood machine work/hondata dealer/tuners in the north east let me know...facts only appreciated

 

The valve job has to match the porting,so whoever is porting it will know what to use.

 

would there be a more desired one to have (valve job)?and do people run over sized valves in boosted engines

 

It all depends on the port work,I prefer to use .5mm on int and 1mm over for exhaust on turbo apps.I've used that set-up on 8 sec Hot Rod class cars and 6 sec pro rwd cars.

 

so the amount of "angles" is determined by how much porting is done to the head?correct?

 

Each porter has a style of valve job and will vary from head to head.I personally like to do a 3 or 4 angle job for the intakes and a radius for the exhaust but some like to do radiused intakes as well.

 

do you have a website or conact i live in MA and was curious about your work email adress?

 

sorry no web site,edsracingheads@msn.com,or 610-529-7028

 

How much of the seating surface does a radiused valve retain? Is it still a 45 degree seat angle?

 

I'm not saying what angle I'd use but the seat will be 1mm -1.5mm wide.

 

Right....can't give away all the mojo.
