Exhaust valve!!

[StormyRob]

Fairly urgent folks. Need an exhaust valve for my front. Can get one from a place down the road but obviously need two. Anyone within an hour or so of Sussex?!

Sorry. none left now.

[StormyRob]

Matter sorted but many thanks Tony.
Picked up a good condition rear head and used the exhaust valves in it.
Compression test stone cold now showing 152 on front and rear which I believe is reasonable.

That's within spec and the more important thing being that they're quite similar.
And you now have some spare inlet Valves.

[StormyRob]

Absolutely! Head cost me 70 so just going to sell it on. Not sure what it's worth as literally all that's missing are the exhaust valves.

[tony.mon]

Worth nothing without the exhaust valve, sorry.

No-one would need to replace a rear head unless the valves were also gone. And ex's always go, inlets only sometimes.

[StormyRob]

Fair enough. Maybe I'll get lucky
