"Note: Planing is not permitted on multivalve cylinder heads (4 valves per cylinder). These cylinder heads must never be subjected to planing under any circumstances. Caution Planing is permitted only on petrol engines with 2 valves per cylinder. It must be noted that planing of the cylinder head is permitted only within the given measurement tolerances. Furthermore, after planing the valve recess must be checked. After planing also check whether different thickness head gaskets must be used. Dimensions and tolerances are given in "Technical Data" in the corresponding Service Instruction" Hi Dave, that`s taken from Tis, I wasn`t aware you were not supposed to skim 16v heads. hth Andy E
