Smells to me like a bad batch of VSOS - only way to explain some being much worse than others. That must be a real PITA with all the build/rebuild that you are doing Mark.

As a related question - Is there any real benefit from these exotic multi-angle valve seats ? I have always thought they were an expensive 'necessity' designed by engine builders with the machinery to do the job and charge accordingly... Being a bit sceptical there for contraversy but I've honestly never seen any quantified benefits from them versus a traditional single angle cut that is well done and ground in.
