Valves don't bend from too much side load unless the rocker end is slipping off the end of the stem.
Thank you Max, but until I get all the parts in front of me I won't really be able to determine whether or not it's on or not.. I just took an estimate or should I say an educated guesstimate of measurements and we'll see what happens.. I shouldn't be too far off though and it would only improve what I have by shortening the valve lengths.. I had way too much protrusion on the exhaust valve..
