thought the meg had bigger valves than a willy?
Yeh that was the assumption i was under
dave
not sure now you say that. exhaust are identical and i just fitted 33mm megane valves to my 1.8 head. thought willy,s were the same just megane has smaller ports
measured my inlet valves on my gasflowed head earlier with verniers and they are 31mm exactly....
right i,m confused now. maybe the 1.8,s are 31mm standard and the others are 33mm then
vernier calipers not vernier pulleys lol, just wondering im measuring the diameter of the valve, maybe i should measure the inner edge of the seat??
no thats right valve head diameter
31mm for sure then, i presume thats 16v size, just wondered what williams ones were as megane ones are supposed to be bigger again..
Dave
megane are 33mm that,s what i,ve got.
ex all the same.
16v in 30.7mm
willy in 31.7mm
meg in 33mm
cheers ben. i was wrong again. i thought willy,s and megane were the same. sorry for the confusion
Slightly off topic but if you were to, for instance build a big valve, gas flowed williams head, what size valves would you use- 33mm?
could be wrong again but i think you can go 34 or 34.5mm
I've got 35mm custom valves, but it takes a SERIOUS amount of work for each port to get the valve size to work. About one evening PER inlet port.
= not cheap.
for a daily drive the willy oe megane valves are more than fine.
might need to get the slightly more accurate verniers out lol

So would a willy head with 33mm inlet valves give a noticeable gain over standard and not need too much work?
appropriately modified yes, but a well modified stock valve sized willy head is perfectly good.
