I'm sure there is more power in a good multi angle valve job but I don't have the cash to spend on it right now and the valves and seats are in good shape so I just lapped them.

A 30 degree back cut on a exhaust valve helps the low lift flow. If you going for every little bit of horse power this will help. If not leave it alone. If you have Manley valves, if I remember our conversation correctly, then they should already have all the correct valve angles. I've done SIX angle cuts on my own heads when I had all the gear. But, that's just over kill.
