Missed a shift and over-revved the engine and leak down indicates that I have bent the intake valve on Cylinder #1. So I will need to replace it with something. Should I try to source a factory replacement valve, new or used, or an aftermarket steel valve. At this point, I am not planning on replacing all the valves, so what is my best option for replacing this one valve. Would a good straight used intake valve be acceptible, or is that being too risky? All comments welcome.

I would suggest a new valve. You never know what you'll get when dealing with used.
Wow, from forth to first, I want your trans, finding first gear on mine is like hunting Grunion. |
