TractorVet, I hope that someday I have the $$ to buy an 806/1206/1256/1456 and have you go through the engine for me... it would be a tractor to last my lifetime, then!

Keep up the great help!

That would be fine but the big problem we are having around here now that the TWO best machine shop that knew how to do this work are now gone and the rest i would not trust to do a valve job on a briggs and stratton . My good life long buddy that had Dick's Engine service had heart problems and tryed to let his son run it well he was not even a Zit on the old man's donkey and Dick offered it to me but where was i going to come up with a half Mill. And the other guy ended up with a noise candy problem . And the rest will not do the job the way ya want it done . Now even have a hard time getting a step flywheel done wright even when ya take the spec's with ya . Tryen to get a head done with the valves set at the correct stand out or recession ya best take your massure tools with and do your owen checkin when picking it up.

Yep, down here in AZ I found one machine shop I trusted with a flywheel cut, but I don"t if I would let them do any engine work...

Back in ND I had two shops in town that were really good, and another that was really cheap for the rough jobs. One of my true tests was when the really good shop pressed a snowmobile crankshaft apart and together to replace the main bearings. Gotta get it together straight so it holds up at 9000 rpm!
