As for the valvaes I just got home and checked my gage, the feeler gage I used has on it 0.30, thats it, no inches or MM indication. Is this the same as .003 (up to .005) or am I out to luch here (I hope I am) . The lowests stick I have in my feeler gage set is 0.10 and it goes up to 0.40.
Thanks guys

What a minute. What are we talking about here?
I'm not sure that I understand. You intended to write ".3"?
That is 100 times what you want.. No. Not .03" either. .3" is 100 times the thickness of .003". The range is .003"-.005" just as I wrote. Metric is different, but even .3 MM would be too big.
Let's stop talking about sizzling water. That is a minor issue. Do like Max said and step backwards. Redo time.
Go out and get some real feeler gages, not just spark plug gages, and then learn the decimal system, and then get a manual. Okay?
I seriously think that you need to start over.
