Can you weld?

no

I put A429 Ford Racing valves in the Last set of DOVES I did. Lem has them in stock and the are very fairly priced for the quality.

Watch the valve job, not all are equal and a good one will make you smile.... a crappy one will make you cry on the bench.

I had about 40 Hours grinding time on the last set. + Parts, Surface, Valve Job, Guides, Cut for Large Valves, Machine for Guide plates and seals.

Lem will be the first to call just trying to get prices on site so me and other members will have some kind of ideal what in store when using dove heads.

Figure your gonna have atleast $1200 in them probably closer to $1500 depending on how big you go.

We have a pretty good idea what a GOOD D0VE heads about.

If I remember right because I got rid of the receipts before my wife found them, but I think I got the valves, Manley Nextec springs, and titanium retainers around $400ish. Can't remember exactly,but somewhere around there
