    By doing so you increase the stem height.
    Valves were lapped when I did the head. Everything went back in its original location, but I wasn't smart enough then to write down all my shim sizes.
    Probably, the motor was way tight when I tore it down. This has been my first resto-ish job, and frankly I was too dumb & too excited to check everything when I tore it apart. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have gotten into this mess.

    Everyone's help here has once again assisted in solving one of my problems.
