Mike, et al---My mind could be changed about this, but I believe that the tension created by the valve spring against the collar and split cone retainers would be too great to allow the valve to turn in operation. (I'm not sure this would be a good idea anyway, once the valve margin has taken a set against its seat) It is true that the exhaust valves run hotter, but I can't picture 'turning' helping to disipate heat. Is it possible that the informer was thinking about the cam followers? Dick CF11143 |
