Review on High Performance ATOZ Valve Seat Cutter Set for 212 Predator Hemi/Non-Hemi/Clone Engines GCV/GC/Gx 196/200 Series Hondas by Ross Decoteau

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Is there exactly the same set at half the price?

Update: Seller contacted. The seller responded quickly and tried to make me happier with the purchase. Due to the response time and the fact that I haven't actually tried the product yet for fear it's the exact same cheap cutters available at half the price, I'm fairly upgrading this to 3 stars. I was hoping that this more expensive price tag ($30+ for cheap valve cutter kits) would have a tapered pilot to help center the cutter properly, but it has a 5.5mm straight pilot that goes into the 5th gear .5mm valve guides dangling. Without a solid and accurate cutting media center, this is likely to result in runout when attempting to cut through the seats, resulting in poor and uneven valve seat trim. I probably won't try to cut valve seats with this kit. I'm afraid this will make her worse and the valves will not be able to close which will make her condition much worse rather than improving her current condition.
