I'm trying to decide whether or not to go with the larger valves that Moss
sells to replace those in my TR3A head.  I keep thinking that if they're
such an improvement, why don't the other guys (TRF, V-B) sell them?  On
the plus side there's a little extra power promised.  What's the down
side?  Less reliability?  Should I perhaps think about larger intakes and
regular sized exhaust valves, or vice versa?

Also, am I correct in guessing that if this car ever goes vintage racing
the legal thing for me to do is not tamper with the valve size?
