Valve job questions? Is this true? I was told that if I were to send my AFR 205’s for valve job that I would loose some Horse Power Due to the supposed fact that AFR has a proprietary valve seat design. Now I’m wondering if it’s worth it to send them out. I just want to clean them up, make sure their straight (since I was loosing a little coolant on nitrous), and mill them a little. I would like to hear all or anyone out there that recommends a good place to send them for a valve job?
I Think They would be fine with a good valve job,Worst case you lose a few hp and fix your coolant leak

But all in all I'm very happy with my AFR 205's.
He'll give you the best advice.
