Default The good and the bad!

I had my head checked out. The good. It is a gude head with gude gorilla cam, port and polish and 5 angle valve job. the thing is sick and nasty looking. the bad is the exasht valves are leaking. Since it ran such a high compression (13:1) they ran the fuel very rich. so there is alot of carbon build up. so i have the head being cleaned and the valves being cleaned also. i hope its just carbon build up on the valves thats makingh them leak. if not i need to get new valves. Someone told me that skunk2 makes a flat valve that gives you .5 compression.?
