Check out your local junior college, night school, or vocational school. You maybe able to find a low cost class where you can get hands-on experience. In my opinion and experience, I have found it better to actually demonstrate and let the person I was showing how to grind the valves do the grinding and fitting in the head.

Re: Valve grinding resources?
Sorry, perhaps I should have been more specific. I am a college student majoring in Motive Power and I must do a lap prep for "Valve Grind". However, I'm finding it difficult to locate a good online source for my research.
I don't know a whole lot about valve grinding, which is why I need to know everything about it before I begin the actual work on it in class.

45 years ago I could grind the valves and do a tun up on a chev 6 cyl before noon. Now I am luckie if I can even get a tune up before noon.   But any more heads require a lot of machine work with a valve grind job. Now heads need to be sent out to a machibe shop for head work. Many needs valve the guides replace and heads checked for cracked and surface checked for warpage and other stuff that only a repier shop can do anymore. MT

Re: Valve grinding resources?
Guys, I'm looking for an ONLINE source of information on how to do a valve grind. This is only a prep for a school project, among 20 other preps. I'm certainly not going to a local machine shop to learn about it because I'm just looking for a step by step guide so I can hand something in to the teacher.
Thanks for trying anyway.
