Hello all.

Im after somewhere that sells or can make me a push rod sleeve. i have a 1275cc unleaded head in the garage, but it seems that someone as attempted abit of home porting on it and gone too far. Its got a tiny nick in the wall but oil passes through it when i checked it. I am wondering if i can just sleeve the push rod hole and use the head as i need a head for the 1275cc engine im building at the moment.

Thanks all
Jordie

use a valve guide, and then open it up to the size you need.

These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

I'd use steel, not iron. The valve guide will become so thin that there's a possibility of collapsing. They're real brittle.

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.
