Well I found out how much metal you can lose from exhaust ports before busting through the water jacket. Surprising amount actually. So anyone have a spare head they can sell me so I can stop a little sooner this time?

I really hope that isn't some kind of common knowledge thing I should recognize, because I haven't a clue what it means haha

I had that happen the other day when my machinist thought he could install new seats... There are shops that can repair it and re harden the valve seats but it is very expensive.

Its actually aout halfway along the port, seats are still fine. It's such a sharp turn, I just got a little bold after i had already managed so much. Trust me though, it's toast. Just need to start over, but this time I know when to say when a least
