Consumer Description

MY CYLINDER HEAD INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVES WERE SEVERELY OUT OF GM'S .0037" MAXIMUM WIGGLE TOLERANCE. THE VALVES WERE TESTED BY YUMA AUTO AND TRANS AS WELL AS AMERICAN HERITAGE PERFORMANCE (HARBOR CITY, CA). NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE MAY HAVE CAUSED A DROPPED CYLINDER VALVE AND BLOWN ENGINE.
