      Muchas gracias por el dato de la balanza para resortes Rimac,Lo conocía ,si pero hacía años que no veía uno,hace un tiempo mandé a reparar la tapa de cilindros de un motor Kia de dos ejes de levas, un mierda de motor. El machINE shop, no tenía balanza de resortes,y armó las válvulas y habían resortes vencidos .Tuve que después reemplazar los resortes Con el motor armado.Tremendo trabajo.Se rompió una confianza de más de 30 años.

      The cost of new equipment is prohibitive to most. I have recently purchased a used 530 Vanorman surfacing machine for a very low price after researching modern electronics to replace the entirely burnt 1980 circuit boards I was able to restore function and now have a machine with less then 2000$ USD invested that will finish a 45-50 r finish on aluminum. I guess my point is chase your dreams and work with in your budget and you can reach your desires. May not happen as fast as you want but you can make it happen

    Pro tip : magnetize a pocket screw driver, put some lithium grease on the grooves in the valve stem. Use the magenetized pocket screw driver to put the keeper in place. The lithium grease will hold the keeper in place as you slide the pocket screw driver up and off the keeper.

    That liquid nitrogen process is exactly the process we used at Douglas Aircraft in Malton, Ontario, Canada to install bushings into the globe ends of the DC10 wing spars way back in 1968. We used the power table lift of the mill we used to bore the globe end hole to push the bushings in with the wing mounted on a sine table and held in the air by two gantry cranes, it was a long sucker. That nitrogen process worked like a charm.

    Just a note to let you know the content you create is both inspiring and informative. Having been a dealership tech my entire life now in retirement I have revisited machining ( i hated it as a 12 year old being forced to work summers in the old shop) playing with the equipment my grandfather had left me when he passed 30 years ago. When he passed due to monetary and space constraints, I was only able to keep a few pieces. I chose to keep the Sioux seat grinding set the Sioux valve refacing machine a Vanorman 570 and a Vanorman seat and guide machine. All the equipment was stored to the best of my ability over the years. The last few years I have restored all to operating condition. I have also added a 1980 530 Vanorman I got cheap (completely burned obsolete electrical boards) after upgrading to modern vfd it operates perfectly. Thank you for the content and the information you create. It is truly inspirational.

      I know where your coming from...When my buddies Sunnen VGS20 Seat & Guide machine had motor board problems....Sunnen wanted $2000 for a "retro-fit kit" I was able to source a $300 VFD drive and build a control system to get it back in operation 3 days after it went "FUBAR".....The entire cost of our "retro-fit" was under $500....Not every shop can afford a $100K+ CnC block machinig station and sometimes the old school craftsman can create better end result.

      I was the opposite. I loved going to work with my dad. From an 8 year old, to a 12 year old, to building my first house from start to finish when I was 15 (EVERY SINGLE DAY of the summer, every weekend, and every moment I wasn't at school), to becoming VP at 18. Then I decided to go to college to go to med school. Stupid decision. I would have made more money than 99% of doctors make, not had to spend half a million dollars on school, and not have to build a business from the ground up, and not had to have waited 10 years to start making money. Just accounting for the cost of school, and lost wages over a decade, that would have been more money than most doctors make over a lifetime.

These are toasted " Its scary what there getting for new a new set of QUALITY BBC Aluminum heads today. And thats if you can even find a set.
