I've had the head off and stripped for about a month now, have 4 bent intake valves and 2 exhaust valves with burrs from the keepers I'd like to replace. Best I can tell is that old carbon being cleaned from the intake hung the valves open. My question becomes what should I use on the head while it's out? I want to use quality parts but don't want to break the bank or go overboard as I plan on rebuilding a 6 bolt from the ground up this spring. The most this head will see is maybe 16 psi from a 16g.
My plans so far are:
Felpr head gasket set
New valves from autozone
3g lifters
I do not plan to surface the head as everything appears within spec (yes I know how to properly check this)
So ideally this head will only be ran for maybe a year, probably at stock to 15 psi from a 14b, will I be able to get away with this for now?
