Earlier engines can be converted cleaply by just installing the valves with the chrome plated stems. DON'T make the mistake of buying the older style non-plated valves which, for some reason, are still around and cheap for a reason. I can never remember which valves it is that are plated. Is it the exhaust valves? - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Pitch in!
