Hi Guys,

I was fitting the valves back into the cylinder head today after recuting the seats,I went to fit the new springs and found that they were tight going onto the guide boss Idont know whether thats the right word but the piece that holds the valve seal . On some of them I literally had to nearly screw the spring on.

Has anybody ever come across this, I tried the old springs and they were. all loose.

Question is are they safe and wil they function properly? I also have another Question for you concerning valve spring height how important is it to get it right ,It will be a completely stock 292 and how does it affect running?

I would be completely lost without this site and all your knowledge Thanks again,

Ken Whelan.
