I wouldn't touch it. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

The chamber work looks really poor on the ebay head, avoid. |

I have measured the heads. Some are standard and the others have a valve size of 36mm inlet and 32mm exhaust. The chambers seem unmodified but the inlet and exhaust ports are worked on from some. you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

the large vavle ones might be prone to cracking, On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

Isn't it best to always keep the 'beaks'? I remember someone saying that they went from a head with 'beaks' to one without, and although the compression ratio was dropped the engine was more prone to knock and less powerful |

so best is to use standard size valve but bigger and flown in and outlet ports?

What are you trying to achieve ? The 29.4mm ex valve flows well enough to make good power, though there are gains to be had going with a larger ex valve, but it does reduce the material between the valve seats.

i have 4 mini's in total. 1 that i use for most roadtrips with a tuned 998 and a total original mk 1 estate.... the third is a original 1300 from 92... so this one i want to go special... will probably only drive 100 miles a year.... race style blow trough supercharger on a 1293 or 1330 or 1380.... (never been done in my Belgian region so) you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

^^^^^ wot he said! the std metty turbo valves are 33x29, going to the MG metro sizes of 35.6x29 is always worth while, and 35.6 x31 is a good option too... but IMO pushing past this is not a good idea on a road going turbo. as joe says.......... i would add, use a head thats is not going to use bigger valves than 35.7mm inlets and 29.5mm exhausts they are usually reliable, because theres enough material left between the two valves. horsepower with these sizes can exceed 190 hp + given the correct other parts combinations. now thats enough hp to grenade your ass out......

Or if you're feeling trick you could offset the larger ex valve. This will leave more material between the valves.
