Many O/H kits come with new valves.
And new guides only add about $20 to the kit making it a no brainer from where I sit.

Upgrade NowThe Tru powers are on my wishlist also. You sure have been making progress! Looks like plenty of room in that shop of yours for working on the cubs compared to my 24x40 that's filling up quicker than I would like with stuff. I like the WRIF sign on the wall too, used to listen to 101.1 as a kid on days when I could get it to tune in clear enough where I grew up.
Having a small shop space is probably a good thing in my case because no matter the size I would still manage to find a way to fill it up with "junk". Must be something about boys and their first vehicle because at 16 I thought the same about my first pickup even with it's rusting cab corners and rocker panels.

Just in case you want to compare "junk".
Here's a distant future project awaiting a spot inside the garage right now. Was my grandparents 8n and before that belonging to my great grandparents. It lived a rough life as you can see and spent a number of years attached to a 3 point blade that was barely hanging together by a thread. My uncle told me that combination of the tractor and blade was what they used to scrape the barnyard with every day at my great grandparents until buying a small Gehl skid steer to replace it. The tin is surprisingly pretty straight for the life it had but no paint left on the tractor and not a single thing that hasn't been cracked and welded and then cracked again. Someone I'm related to must have had the theory who needs OEM parts when you have a welder?
Nice find with the tillers Adam!
