Glen and Becky used to be a TSL, then set up on their own

Still unsure to the exact problem but I brought the car with the head gasket gone and after I changed the gaskets and had the heads skimmed etc I had no valve clearance on 2 exhaust valves causing me a misfire , after sorting the clearance issue out I now have a ever so slight misfire and it seems flat , so I'm wondering if when the head gasket went it damaged/burnt the 2 valves causing this flat running at the moment

Sounds like a valve seat issue, if it got hot when the gaskets went it can distort & pit the seats causing hot spots which can then make the valves burn out. Compression & cylinder leakage tests are needed to confirm this.
Good Luck, Richard.

Another vote for Glenn and Becky (oh and Dave and Carl) at Carnetix, these guys really know their stuff and you won't be disappointed. Nobody else goes near the S202

Another vote for ScoobyClinic, you won't go wrong with them, good bunch of lads, won't rip you off and WILL solve the problem. 
Just don't go wondering around looking at shiny new turbo's and watch out for Adam if you have your wallet with you he's like the Pied Piper tempting you with goodies, in reality he's a know wallet rapist and will have you going for 600bhp and entering Time Attack before you know it.

I'm a bit confused by your response.
