I have measure valves OD, yes I only have a small micrometer and verniers.
They are within limits.
A question: do I start with course paste first when lapping valves? The tube shown has cousre & fine paste.

I have thought about using the spare engines block as the valves are also within limits (much the same size) and movement side to side is not as bad on the exhuast valves stem. These images are of my spare engine.
The piston and bore I will do next.[Linked Image]
