Rover 10 Special Valves
Posted: Wed Jan 04, 2012 5:43 pm
Hi All and a happy new year
I am in the process of rebuilding my 1933 10 Special Engine and head. In the process I've had alot of help from various Register stalwarts but have failed thus far to find any replacement valves to suit my car.
My understanding is that the part number for these is 56045, which may also be common to other similar models. I may be in a postion to have some made by G & S valves, who have so far been very helpful, however, for me to have 2 made which is the minimum I need they will be £80 each. If I have a set made they will be £30 each so £240 in total. If I increase my order the price comes down significantly, so I could have 3 sets made for another £110 on top.
I am therefore seeking any interested parties who may be in need of some spare valves - if I get enough interest then I can arrange a larger batch of manufacture and do us all some good in providing a source of these bits which are becoming a bit like hens teeth.
Please let me know as soon as you can if anyone is interested.
Thanks
Tony
