Hmm did they spend a long time on a flow bench or something? ________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

I would imagine when they were in development they did yes, by the time Longman retired I imagine he (or whoever did them) could do them with there eyes closed but that didn't stop Longman charging BTCC prices for them. Porting seems to be a strange thing, some people claim it takes days sitting at a flow bench and charge £k's, others do it by sight for a few hundred quid and there doesn't appear to be a noticeable difference in the finished product. I guess it depends a lot on how 'perfect' and equally matched you want each port to be. Think it's safe to say with this been a BTCC head it would be the latter... ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

I'd like to see £100 for it. Got s**t loads of watchers on eBay though so might let it run and just see what it goes for... ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

Not sure is the honest answer. The valves it used are G+S valves, listed for a 405 MI16 here-http://www.gsvalves.co.uk/assets/recmastervalvecatalogue.pdf They are about £270 for an engine set which isn't bad at all. They are 0.5mm oversize so not much bigger than standard valves. I would personally say standard valves would be ok as long as they are cut to match the seats but wouldn't guarantee it... The stem size is standard. ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

Ah well, that's what they are listed as, dunno what they are, probably first used in the 405 supertourers or something... stem sizes are definitely standard.________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

The one listed above did sell but I have recently listed an identical one with similar damage. Search eBay and you'll find it. ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |
