I picked up my head today from Terry's and he seems to have done a splendid job. The head had 0.040" shaved off, the valve guides reamed and a three angle valve grind. The three angles were done in accordance with the Competition Preparation Manual. Compression should be about 9.75:1 now.
However I opted to make both the intake and exhaust seats .032" wide.
