They're not Williams even though it says they are

[dimma]

has anyone bought any of the valves from ebay? i was maybe going to get some and see.i was on to renault today and the valves are sold in 4s and are £95 plus vat.

i have taken out the 2 bent valves and i noticed 1 of them is differant from all the rest and it measures 33mm and the others 32mm so it looks like shes done it before.i measured the seats in the head and the all are the same so i think il get the ones off ebay and put them in.

So you can sling a 33m megane inlet valve in a stock williams head and it'll fit? :S

[Justin..]

Weird! Surely they would not lift fully tho and make it sound tappy?

i got a tub of course and a tub of fine valve grinding paste and all the inlets ground in.i took down the 33mm valves as close to 32mm as possible with a fine cutting disc on a 4" griinder i set the valve on the side of the disc and marked it then rotated it with very little prersure it made a good job of them.i will try and post up some pictures.job sorted :D

got the 33mm valves from a local motor factor for £12 each.
