Thanks for feedback. So I thought those 2 holes should be threaded, but didn't look like they were, so knowing they are suppose to be helps. Thanks for the tip, I'll chase them and then get a couple of appropriate bolts and give it try.
Also thanks for the idea of lubing the value guides before starting, although since I've already run the compression test its probably late to worry about it too much. But probably would be a good idea to go ahead and pull the value cover and do it, to make sure the values are moving and will be necessary to adjust the values anyway.
Quick feedback... like the site so far, thanks Ed & Jerry.
