I'm sure Iain and Nitro_Junkie, amongst others can relate to this!

Yea, the mind boggles!

Love to build a powerplant using this kind of kit, though.......Would be immense. I can just imagine it all churning away under the hood!

Saying that, the 'Vettes intake valves were 1.94" but that's still considerably smaller :D

Awesome :D

How long do you expect them to last? This one was pulled because it was a little tired but I'd be interested to know how long it's maximum life (in passes, I guess!) roughly should have been....

Guess it varies a lot on the motor, mind :)
