did you notice a reduction in valve noise after this work? thanks B.

A local E30 M3 racing guru helped teach me how to do my valves. He has a set of specs for doing them warm or cold. You just have to allow for a few hundreths of an inch diffrence when measuring is all. I'm sure there are some very strict advocates for the cold procedure out there, but for me warm is good enough. Everything runs/sounds just great.

What do you think about this topic? Any one have experience with doing it hot? Tia
