appreciate the help.. but.. i don't feel comfortable with the 10mm wrench.. i'm gonna have to bend the tar outta it to make it feel it fits best... i took feeler measurements before i touched anything.. then went thru and worked on the one tighter exhaust valve i felt.. then i went thru an adjusted all the system to a smooth yet felt drag at 008 on intake and 010 on exhaust.. couldn't find a metric feeler gauge set that included any of the values the honda manual says I can use.. .21 to .25 intake and .25 to .29 exhaust and every gauge had only the .20, .25 and then a .30 so i figure use the closest.. and .008 and .010 work out close to .21 and .25...

i don't yet have a torque wrench.. so.. i tighten them as best i could.. i'll drive it an feel what i think and check the settings in a few miles... i might have driven 100 miles tonight alone.. man i missed Vtech... and this feels alive again when it hits roughly 6k...
