Hi, long shot, has anyone got any surplus 32.5mm inlet and 28.5mm exhaust valves for K Series VVC Head?

Thanks

Being oversize I guess you'd have to be more than lucky to find them second hand.

G&S Valves will make them for you.

These are particularly large sizes (I previously had the same fitted to mine) and as far as I'm aware your only source new will be G&S (Paul Ivey). Used, I think you've more chances locating some rocking horse poo, and would you trust the providence of them anyway?

I recently needed a couple of standard VVC inlet valves but wasn't happy with the first ones I bought, there's so many parts being made cheap in China and not all are top quality, these just didn't look right and there's too much at stake if something fails. A little more digging and I managed to get a couple of NOS original Rover valves.

Good luck searching, but I think I'd speak to G&S about new ones. I seem to recall somewhere in the past reading that you can turn down the 29mm inlets to use as the exhaust valves but you might want to research that a little more.

Thanks all for comments, they do come up from time to time when moving to even larger inlets. For one of those longer term projects so no rush and if needs be will buy new if no availability.

Thanks again
