Default Valve job :confused:

So what goes on when you do a 3-angle valve job?

The valves are backcut at 3 different angles, which is supposed to make for better sealing against the seats.

the valve seats in the head are cut with 3 angles, a 45 where the valve sits and then two other usually secret angles leading into the port. a good valve job consists of 5 base angles and then blend the seats into the ports.
