If I upgrade my intake valves to manley stainless ones, can I just leave my exhaust valves alone or do I have to change them too? I'm just getting stock sizes.

I might have found the problem, but won't see til tomorrow. I think the Ford cam gears are off, which I had to correct, and that is why I was having ptv problems. So far, I put both chains on, playdoh in each cyclinder, and all came out well, but I'm going to try the test tomorrow again and check for the same results. I'm crossing my fingers.

I'm tempted to get manley valves because they give you .040 more clearance, but I'm not sure yet about those either.

1. If your touching valves, replace them all.
2. If PTV is your problem what type of cams are you running?
