Valve seat angles, seat cutters, and cam splitting; CL77.

[65ShelbyClone]

As you can see from the title I have more than one question.

1. What are the sealing surface angles for the valves and seats? It's not as simple as 45 degrees on intake and exhaust, is it?

2. Can anyone recommend a fairly low-cost seat cutter or stone and pilots I can get get? I can fixture the head in a nice Bridgeport mill if I want, but just don't have the time. Sioux seat grinders cost a fortune even used.

3. How do the two halves of the cam come apart? Is that toothed ring by the sprocket a spanner nut of some kind, or is that nut/stud on the end all that holds them together?
