I have removed the head +( now have(bimetal) corrosion on the back hole
both on the head and the block,,? the head has a marking of 035,looks
like some one hand punched those no's in on the edge. also i need to
know the valve throw or travel. if the removal of more material will
allow me to just set the head with the new gasket kit or do i need an
over sized head gasket??. the engine has been redone as the pistons are
marked +40. it does' run strong and if i grind the head and mill the
block will i have the room for the valves ,, I guess that was my
original thought..

thanks chuck
