The place was terribly overgrown and wooded. When we got their he learned that it had burned long ago. This place is deep in the woods and he didn't even know it had burned. Thank you for watching!

    A great idea if you had a single angle valve seat/valve. Similar to just using a valve cutting paste and back lapping with the valve inserted into the drill bit. But how would this work with a multi angle valve job?? Wouldn't you risk sanding the valve multi angle machined cuts off? Probably.

    • @ChadDrake4185

      Probably. I only use this method on old flathead blocks that have very pitted seats that valve grinding compound probably wouldn’t help much.

    What keeps it from locking out again when you start it? I unlocked mine, then when I spin the starter up it just throws it out and locks it again. Doesn’t seem to have a spring on it either to pull it back to its starting point. I don’t quite understand. Does it have to be installed to function properly?

      Once it’s installed in your engine you’ll see. The centrifugal force of your turning engine will unlock the drive and spin it back in. It’s definitely a weird thing. But you’ll see once installed.
