Head measured 139.5 mm after surfacing. I had concerns about the cam bores not lining up if the head was warped and then planed. I put the cams in the head W/O installing the lifters so I could turn the cams without trying to open a valve. After torqueing the caps I was able to turn the cams with two fingers. No problems with the cam bore alignment. Onward and upward!
