Just wondering if anyone has done this, I can get stainless steel 993 valves with 8mm stems
The specs are about the same length, but they have a shorter tip (3mm vs 6mm IIRC) and the retainer would be higher, but that can be easily corrected with shims. The valves are stainless so cutting them down to SC head size is no problem. Advantage is reducing weight on the valve train, the weight savings are greater than TI retainers so in effect I could keep the stronger and cheaper steel retainers or just use TI retainers on the intakes. My cams don't have huge lift, but do have long duration. WEB 120/104, much like a MOD S or GE60 cam. Just wonder if this work is worth it or not for my cams.
