My question is, can I have all the seats replaced in order to go back to the legal valve size of 1.94? Thanks in advance for any and all input.
You can probably grind the seats back to 1.94 by using a 30 degree stone to grind the 45 to be smaller . It would depend partially how they were opened up and its not optimal because you are probaply going to sink the valves a bit doing this. Also i have a set of 441's if you need them.
