Megane inlet valves in a Williams/16v head

[Justin..]

Can it be done?

What does it involve?

Rough costs? (ie to fit the bigger inlet valves would be cheaper/a bit more than to buy new Williams valves... )

meg valves are cheaper...needs seats fitting ...easy enough

Its not cheap to do properly.

Its not cheap to do properly.

this, i was quoted an extra £300 to fit them when i had headwork done. i actually wanted them but was told if not going itb then not to really bother, so took that advice :D

[Justin..]

If its nearly £200 for 8 new willy valves its a valid option tbh.

also can upgrade the seats too.

but really needs further head work to make the valves work properly in the head.

depends if you can get a cheaper enough megane head to rob the valves from.

[Justin..]

you can get them new for a tenner each, why would I want 2nd hand?

[MAXIBOY]

can get them for less than that..

all i was saying if you had a second-hand head with valves its not an expensive option.

but still needs new seats ..

plus extra if the valve guides are worn or if a new set of tappets/springs etc is needed.

i put 2 meg inlet valves in my willy 2 head and didnt get new seats fitted just lapped them in it took around an hour per valve to get them done but they are 100%.i went round the outside diameter of the valve with a fine disc in a small grinder to make it as close to the williams 32mm as possible cause the angle of the valve were it seats is the same as the williams.
