FINALY!!! my head will be finished tuesday. but my mum is going in for surgury on that day so i wont be able to do much for a week or more. it would have been done saturday but the guy whos doing it is using a diff head with most of my valves but they wont fit as there 0.1mm too big. so he found a few but needs to order 6 more in. has anyone else had probs with valve stems being the worng size on the x14xe heads? | |
