March 27, 20188 yr I lapped many valves over the years using the tools Dave pictured. The machine piece could never move the valves fast enough to do a valve lapping correctly. Not much pressure is required either. My best friend owns a machine shop and the crank tool is what they use. Grinding the valves and seats is another story and this mechanism could not be used for that either.
