A little different than we do. .005 interference fit on hardened seats, installed cold from the freezer and with tincture of iodine. They go in easy and expand when they warm up. They come to the ambient temp of the parent metal in less than a minute. The iodine makes them rust-weld in place almost instantly. Have never had an iodine'd seat come out, even in truck engines run low on coolant under load ...
It's funny, I'm watching this elaborate, drawn-out demonstration of the process of milling these heads, and over in the list I see one of the next videos from this guy is "how to deal with angry customers." I wonder if the two are linked at all LOL
I love your videos & dont disagree with any of your work or teachings but what I know to be a medium riser head is a performance 427 head? What you have there is what I know to be a standard run of the mill 360/390 2bbl head vs. The larger port 4bbl 390 head. If those are C8AE -H heads? 2.03 Intake & 1.55 exhoust valves. Witch would fall into the low riser category. Maybey im mistaken??
This seems like a LOT of work and man hours rebuilding iron heads like this. Cost wise is it more affordable than getting a set of aftermarket heads from a reputable maker like Dart, Edelbrock, or AFR?? I realize prices for aftermarket castings vary greatly depending on what you want but i'm talking just a entry to mid level aluminum head.
I absolutely love your presentation of the engine work you are doing and I am a Ford (FE) aka Ford Edsel L🤪L.
I am posting part 7A and B for some reason my editing software wouldn't up load the whole video sorry about that
I know pretty much but have never seen a set of heads completely re-worked. Part A and B very informative. Very interesting.
Take your time rare heads reminds me of high school doing valve jobs for anybody that needed help
I new the steps shown here, but never saw them. Great video.

Always happy when I get a notification that you've uploaded a video :)

I spun a rod bearing is my TBSS should I stroke it to 402?
Are the exhaust and intake valve stems thee same diameter ? Supprised you do not use cutting oile when drilling the holes .
Hello! Why are you punching valve seats for unleaded fuel? I haven't ever heard and I would like to know why, Thanks!
