The question is, am I good to continue? I want to make sure these valves and seats are good before I continue with the build.
Thanks for all of the input. Based on the recommendations I have dyed the valves and seats using a sharpie marker. I have only done the driver side cylinders so far, they are number 5, 6, 7, and 8 from front to back, respectively. I have labeled the block for 5I and 5 E, for intake vs. exhaust. It seems that the intake seats sit near the edge of the valve and the exhaust sits toward the inside more.
Most are around .100", and one of the narrow ones is .060". Based on your comments I think I am ok to continue. I did notice a little tiny gouge on the 6 intake near the 6exhaust, I am not sure if that is something I can just lap a little more to clean up.
Cylinder 5
Cylinder 6
Cylinder 7
Cylinder 8
