kdotlowe Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Hey all, Anyone know the deal with valves for a Xflow? I'm after some 40.6mm(or close) inlet valves. Now no one I've talked to can get any larger than 39.5mm. They are available from the UK but at 18pounds a piece. Anyone know anywhere in NZ that possibly does them?

kdotlowe Posted October 25, 2009 Author Share Posted October 25, 2009 Cheers all. Would prefer to get them off the shelf for the Xflow to make things easier. Bubblegoose, you have a pm. All else fails, I'll just order from burtonpower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorensin Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I had Hardend stainless VW valves machined down, wasn't very pricey. Was well cheaper than 18pound each. Can get the details if you like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdotlowe Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share Posted October 26, 2009 Yes please! That would be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
