[QUOTE="railroad, post: 16349957, member: 13485"] Valves may have been put in dry and or too tight. Most builders put a coat of anti seize on the stems. There have been some cheap valves out there. Probably Chinese knock offs. They were bad to gall in the guides. I have also seen builders remove the steel rings from the seals, allowing more lube on the stems. Really hard to say which applies to your issue. Sounds like the builder did you right. [/QUOTE]
