I was told that the "NEW" Legal valve job did away with the unshrouding rules (1/8 bigger than valve head) and the 1/4" (Seat) part of the rule.
Basically if you can do it "On center of the valve guide" it will pass. It doesn't matter if it is in the bowl area or chamber area as long as it is "On center of the valve guide Center Line. The only exception I got, if you want to call it that, was when I ask if anything could be "elliptical" The answer I got to that was a definition of "on center". I'm pretty sure that last line just gave away who was giving me the Vale Job information. I would bet quite a few of you know his "Style"... of giving answers.
