valves
I have new Morris 6 valves , got them from Cox & Turner years ago .
As an experiment, I had a go at refacing the worn and pitted exhaust valves that were taken out of the original CS8 motor. I used a 4 jaw chuck and a HSS tool in a lathe. A few very light cuts and a polish with emery cloth . These are not hard stellite valves that would normally need a grinder.
The refaced valves are good enough to use again but I will be using the new valves because they have more " meat" on them.
