Title: Mark Pascoe’s 1776cc Ti Valve wanted Post by: Paul Bate on May 23, 2020, 08:42:16 am I’m currently re-building Mark Pascoe’s Drag Oval 1776cc Engine.
It has a bent Titanium valve which we think was a Bugpack, they no longer stock them. Has anyone got one or know where I could get one, the spec is: 37.5mm Diameter 8mm Valve Stem 113.3mm Long It has a flat bottom as per the photo Thanks for any help Paul[attachment=1] Title: Re: Mark Pascoe’s 1776cc Ti Valve wanted Post by: leec on May 23, 2020, 09:39:53 am Hi Paul,
