Valve job
1. Is there a one stop shop where I can buy gaskets so I can do a valve job?
2. Does anyone else have some input or advice?
Thanks in advance!!
The old and reliable.

I can hear a putt-putt-putt out of the tailpipe. I haven't done a cylinder bleed down check yet but am starting to think that perhaps I have an exhaust valve hanging up. I have two quick questions:
