Since the exhaust valves are at least an inch away from the piston crown, what was the reason for recessing them? It's the intakes that are in danger of touching the piston. If the rocker shaft is shimmed to correct the intake rocker geometry, it might be necessary to add a lash cap to the top of the exhaust valve stems.

I was mistaken when I posted that, I believe it was the intakes valves that I had sunk .100". I may be wrong in this but if I remember correct. The intake valves are located such,that they are over the engine block and are not over the piston or cylinder .
