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

Hi Paul,

Sure you have used google, but after a quick search are these any good?

A lathe with a collet, a dial indicator, and a small brass hammer. Reface when finished.

Titanium valves can be straightened, as Bruce suggests.

Thanks Bruce, Marks not had a lot of luck with this engine.

I’ve now been entrusted to put it back together and don’t really want to take any risks.

Thank you for the input 😀👍🏻
