Prices have gotten out of hand on everything . I did a ton of valve and head work and 2-250 covered a I H gas head . Valves i bought in bulk along with guides and seats way better price that i could pass on .

The hardest part was getting the head set up in the grinder . I preferred my buddy's Van Norman over the old Storm Valcan we had . Dick's was way faster , set the head down on four feeler gauges and check them to see what one pulled out a quick tap to balance and clamp it down and turn it on set the travel and rate of down and walk away , when done the machine shut down . No standing over it baby setting and adjusting .
