    Has anybody ever gotten a five angle valve job done on a cylinder head? Does it help with low end torque like I hope it does? I guess I've always wanted to get one done on a smaller engine to crutch up low end power. Does it even do that?

    Who's had this done to an engine, and was it worth it?

    A proper, multi angle valve job does indeed increase flow, but ot won't be as dramatic as I think you expect it to be.

    One of many little pieces that make the difference between a good motor and a great motor. By its self you would probably not even notice it.

    Darn, I kinda figured as much. It's something I'd do if I ever decided to build a really nice street motor for something. I say street since I think it's an illegal mod in most of the racing (stock or damn near stock classes) I might possibly do.
