Actually, it is the gasket manufacturers that have the most to say about this. I believe that retorquing pretty much disappeared by the end of the 60's or so. When I look at GMHPP catalogue for exam

"Bowl Work" refers to the valve pocket, i.e. the first 1 inch or so of the port that is adjacent to the valve seat. This is where 80% of the gains to be had from porting are realized, and it should

The type of rivet you use makes a difference. Aluminum is softer and requires less force to install, plus it doesn't rust. For the studs, I placed a *small* washer over the stem of the pop rivet so
