pre - rebuild everything
mechanics (technicians now) fixed only the
parts that were broken
if an engine needed one valve done thats
what it got & back on the road
"Overhauls" were only done when the engine
had gone south so to speak
valve jobs do need to be done by a professional machinist the width & profiles
of the valve seats are critical - wrong & the valve will toast
