Sometimes I see something on CL and it looks like it might be something cool, or maybe not. And I'm a sucker for vintage tools. With the T4 valve seat issues, is this something relevant? http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/tls/5807023926.html |

Oh and then you still need a valve grinder, even if you're using new valves, to do a back cut on performance valve jobs and a true up the ends.
Plus you need coring drills, reams and drivers to be able to do the guides. You should also have a spring pressure tester and proper height measuring tools, plus an assortment of shims to set the spring height. All the while this is a really easy job to fuck up.
