Thanks for the props guys!!!

I'm just trying to do my part to keep it interesting.

My phone has a hard time with real close up pics, so I can't capture a decent image of the valve stem with all the little nicks and dings in it from being tumbled with other valves, but you can see in this pic how the banging around raised a lip on the outer edge of the valve.
I would think they would have had to be in the tumbler for a while to get this to happen.
It was all the way around every valve.
They were Manley valves, so no........ They didn't come like that.
