Just taking apart a spare 2.25, quick question but why are the valves different? My other 2.25 petrol (81 Reg so slightly newer) has all the same valve tops.

Thank you

Don’t know why they changed them probably an improvement but bet both types a bugga to refit

Thanks Steve,

Had it running so all works together. Found out it also has hardened valve seats and stainless exhaust valves to match - winner
