Valve grinder
Just picked up a Sioux valve grinder and seat grinder from the local auction today. Can't wait to clean it up and give it a try.

I will have to practice since I haven't done any since high school but I do have a few to practice on.

Re: Valve grinder
Awesome find!! Found a good tool myself the other day. A Rimac valve spring tester. Great shape!! I hope to go through and document all my spare valve springs, to see if they are usable for replacement/rebuild purposes.

Re: Valve grinder
That is a good find. I am going to keep my eyes open for one myself.

Re: Valve grinder
Finally pulled the grinder out of the jeep and into the garage. Man is that thing heavy.
Tried out an old Ford valve in it just for fun and out cleaned up real nice (even though there is not much margin left). I also need to get the nifty little bracket to put the chamfer back on the stem.
Excited!
