Make sure when you replace the valves you look at the other components closely. When the valves contacted the pistons to bend the valves it stopped everything and while unlikely you could have damaged the cams, lifters, rockers, etc. 99% of the time they will be ok, but now is a good time to check rather than putting it back together and discover a problem.

as with anytime something goes wrong, the reason a 30 minute job takes me 2 hours... I'm looking at what could have made it go wrong, or what else could be damaged.

I always try to warn people, because when your new to the sport you have a tendency to only replace what you see is bad. Looking deeper is something that comes with experience. Just trying to save him some grief, cause I have not looked deeper and doubled my work and money in the past. So I try not to do that any more.
