Re: 59 Apache SWB Fleetside in UK

Ok, so the machine shop wasn't happy with the replacement parts as they are 2mm smaller diameter and 3 mm shorter stem. So he has hatched a plan to use Mercedes diesel turbo exhaust valves with a 45 deg seat instead of 30 deg seat and custom valve guides. . So at least next time I'll be able to get parts easier. Should get the head back next Wednesday. so until they it's clean and paint the other parts.
