Great video, with modern gas would it be possible to do a short vid to expand info on the valve job? Would love to hear your(and your dad's) thoughts on hardened seats vs bronze, 2 angle vs 3 angle, etc. Did you have the seats refinished, new springs? Did you need to ream the guides or were they prefit to the valves? No stem seals? Sorry for the questions, I learn so much from your videos, keep up the fantastic work. Lots of Panheads still working hard, therefore the interest in valves. Thank you

Great video. Hey i may be mistaken, but did you ever show the 1940 ULH in it’s completed form? Or is it not finished yet?

Thanks for the comment, you didn't miss it, still waiting on the painted parts from the body shop and we are working on the wiring,

...heads look like there are 1960 from what I could make out on the date casting....

[@jessesvintagegarage765]

Yep, the 1956 cast part numbers 9 fin with a 1960 date on them both, the previous owner must have picked these up due to something being bad with the original 1956 dated heads,

Oh what do i hate that loctite 510 It gets hard and make it sometimes really difficult to open up a cover where its have been used. I prefer something that stays a little elastic like yamabond
