Fastest A Series Mini in the World

leeds/wakefield.

peersonally i found the normal race type ex valve struggled to cope with the extreme heat in my middle two cylinders and after a season would become concave by going soft and being pulled up into the head, so i now use the thicker rimflow, ,

inconel!! thats twice this week ive heard this stuff mentioned,lol.

Martin Hadland ( Reyland Motorsport )'s new Escort has its exhaust manifold and system made from the stuff.

And you think a few exhaust valves will be expensive !!!!!!

There's an article on it in this months Fast Ford.

Hear it again....

Im making enquries. One guy has told me the best bet, is to find a valve similar, then machine it down and use it....Evo was mentioned as a possibility.
He's looking into it for me.

The std 29mm sodium filled valve is so tiny !!!! Ive one sitting on my desk now lol
