10vt Head Modifications

[Todd Phenneger]

Jorgen,
  Thanks for the info.  I dont think I want to go as far as
moving the guides.  But I do have an 82mm Bore so thats good.
  So what size Exhaust Valves should we be looking at here. 
33mm is stock if I remember right.  Is 35mm a good bet or do you
try to squeeze 38mm valves in there?
Thanks
  Todd
