I checked the archives and did not see this dicussed here, so maybe it
is a dumb question, but thought I would ask anyway- I usually run
whatever hi-test gas I find locally in my guzzis - and I know that in my
older car motors that when i had a valve job done I had hardened seats
installed to make up for the quality/make up of the gasoline- is this
something that should be done on Ambo/Eldo heads?
Also- has anyone on the list used Kibblewhite valves (blackdiamond
valves)for their loop? On their website it shows that they have valves,
guides and springs for the loops, etc:
