Farmall M valve seat grind angle?

rbooe05 · Jun 18, 2012

Hey all, i am putting my head back together and i have 2 valve seats that are a bit pitted so compound isnt taking it out. Well i think im going to try to pick up a grinding stone and the guide pin but im not positive on the valve angle. I think its a 45 degree but is that both intake and exhaust? Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated! thanks

You're right, 45 degrees, intake and exhaust, then you can follow with a 15 degree to narrow the seat if need be.

I have my dad's Sioux seat and valve grinder. It is super heavy but comes in handy.
