  • Here I document most of the process of rebuilding a 4 stroke dirtbike head. I replace valve guides, valve seats, cut the valve seats using neway cutters and replace the rest of the valve train.
    Excuse where I misspeak but I appreciate anyone that gives the time to watch.
    We are a small machine shop located in Western Massachusetts and I have found some success in the repair of small engine components.If you need and head work done, porting/polishing, valvetrain rebuild or cylinder boring/honing, sleeve installation, feel free to inquire and I would love to work with you.

    So what you're saying is I should be able to do this in my basement with a hand drill and a claw hammer?
    Great work sir!

    how did you find the angle to set it up in the mill?

    • @shopdreamin372
      @shopdreamin372  Před 3 lety

      I had a rod that was the same diameter as the valve guide bore, I put the rod in the bore and indicated up and down it until it was straight. Then to make sure I just indicated the floor of the valve seat bore and it was flat.
      There might be a few ways to go about it. I think a level would work well too if you can get a rod of some sort that sits flat against the floor of the bore and measure with the level against the top.

    What size are the cutters? Will they work for all of the major MX bikes?

    • @shopdreamin372
      @shopdreamin372  Před 2 lety

      It's a kit for general mx bikes. There are more specialized kits and more expensive ones but this was a good starting point. They even fit some smaller Honda and vw heads. I buy a new cutter when I need it, so far I have added a 15 and 70+ degree cutters to do a 5 angle valve job. They have everything, depends what you want to spend really

      @shopdreamin372  Před 3 lety +2

      I can only reply in English but I bought my set at cylinderheadsupply.com
      They have a large variety of sizes for different engines so you have to do your research. They can get a bit pricey

    You've got a cnc machine, why would you use those shit neway cutters?

    • @shopdreamin372
      @shopdreamin372  Před 3 lety +1

      Next time I will use the cnc to rough out the seats but I prefer the neway cutters when finishing because it takes a second to change the cutter and the only setup is inserting the mandrel in the valve guide.

    Hi sir how do you install valve guide in small engine head

    • @shopdreamin372
      @shopdreamin372  Před 2 lety

      So I make a mandrel that the guide sits on, basically a little pin with a stop. Then I warm up the bore where the valve guide goes in and gently hammer the mandrel with the guide into the hole. Then I make sure the valve is sticking out the amount the OEM standard calls for. Then the valve guide needs to be finish honed to match the valve.

    Jesus, I seen a Serdi machine from the '60s do a better job cutting. An actual valve seat guide machine will do a way better job.
    How'd you get the old valve seat out? If you have a valve seat guide machine, you can just cut it right out, just like a cylinder liner in a block. There's a reason why you didn't show us that part. With that wonky hole that you showed us your turd CNC machine made, your customer is going to drop a valve seat. Jeesus
