bronze or "standard" ? maybe SBD sell them at a rip off price. Bill B might be willing to share an engineering contact with you or something.

its not really a DIY job, you need to get them changed at an engineering shop.

i spoke to bill and he wont do it but i might be able to get one off of him. wasnt even thinking about attepting it myself...ill have a word with sbd and see what they say. Nothing but bloody hold ups :cry:

Have you tried Autovaux? Got a set from them :)

If you want them changing I'd pm "Gary" off mig, very good at his work, willl fit and ream them out, and might even re-cut your valves seats too if you ask nicely. :)

Dear Denny

Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately we do not carry any stock of valve
guides suitable for the 8V engine. To order one in specially would be too
expensive.

There is an engineering shop near me i use for head skims and getting random parts you could give him a try. 01707 264310/ 262557. Its called power units. Might be worth a try. The bloke really seems to know what hes doing.
