Mike, contact Tucker Valve Seat Co, 1 800 362-7321, Part # for 1600 intake:
T-406, exhaust: T-346. In talking with Steve, he echoed what someone else on
the list had stated, namely that your machinist should be able to measure the
seat and valve and order oversize seats, then machine the hole to mount. He
indicated that, if your machinist is not able to do so, then he strongly
suggested getting another machinist! Hope this helps!
