I understand the procedure and know what it is going to take. My issue is that I havent heard anyone talk about getting to the back cylinders with the drill and cutter. I have put valve springs in the heads while on the car and barely had enough room to get the spider tool for the back 4 valves. So with that said I must imagine getting a drill in there would be a serious bitch. Unless you hook up some kinda funky wobble contraption.
Could someone ease my mind before I get wrapped in that mess.

Thanks

I used a 90* drill that I have, without it.. the job would have sucked even worse than it did.

Well thank you for the answers guys. That makes sense. One last thing before I am on my way. The standard acceptable cut seems to be around .080. A few guys say .100 is ok and a few say .060 is max. My question is this. If you cut .080 does that mean you increase your actual clearance by that number. For example if I am going to run a cam with .605 lift int/exh and I end up with .040 PTVC, after a cut off say .080 will I have a PTVC of .12? I just wasnt sure if it was a direct translation.

Yes, you are correct, how ever much you cut by.. that's how much clearance you'll gain. I tried for .080 on my car... but some of them are a little deeper than that It is real real hard to be exact about it. If I wanted .080 again, I'd shoot for .090 and take a +/- .010 tolerance on it
