I have my head off cause i thought i bent my valves But i obviously cant see if my valves are bent or not cause they look find. What can i do to tell if my valves are bent or not without taking them out. Someone told me to put water on em and if it leeks through then there bent But i dont know about that.

thats what i did to see if they were bent. make sure the cams are off so the valves sit fully on the seat, and pour water, or oil, on the valves from the bottom, and if it leaks into the chamber, then they are bent. same thing with light, light can find its way through anything, try shining a flashlight at the valves from the bottom and see if you can see light inside the chamber, if so, they are bent. i did this when i bent my valves, and all the ones that leaked or shown light were the ones that were bent
