I am not an engine shop employee nor a machinist, but I thought that valve lapping was used to determine if grinding is necessary. Either way, when in doubt farm it out. Better to take your time and have the heads serviced by a speciallty shop than have to redo you build.

good luck.

My EJ22 is up to 230k miles with no rebuild in sight.

Pics of your subby?


The other two pictures are when I pulled the motor and had the heads resurfaced..
