/6 Matt
30 Degrees Crooked
Kind of more of a general engine building question but still slant six related.
So I've been doing some mild portwork on a head for my slant six that's gonna go in the Dart soon. I was very prudent in keeping the valves in order and labeled as I disassembled the cylinder head and did the old school trick where you poke holes through a box and place them in it. I even made sure to put the box in the only place I could think of were kids, cats and wives wouldn't disturb it and.... my wife still managed to accidentally knock down the box and I have two intake valves that fell out with no clue which one goes in which cylinder.
So my question is now what? Do I just put them back in the head and lap them? Do i buy new valves and lap them in? Do i get a valve job? The head doesn't really need a valve job.
