Since i am in the process of rebuilding my engine i figure i should replace the exhaust valves while its all apart. Is this something i can do myself or do i need to take it to a shop to do? Also is it worth replacing the intake valves also?

You can do it yourself, but is best done by a machine shop that has all the proper tools to remove old valves, grind seats and lap new valves into seats for proper sealing...VERY IMPORTANT!!!! :wink:

Thats what i was looking for, Thanks! It seemed easy enough to physically replace them but i wasn't sure if there was more to it. Looks like i will be bringing it to the shop when i bring my crank. Thanks Again
