here is the latest tuning mod to my enfield v twin , reading about the works kr hardly ferguson racers they found on large straight tracks the power would fade
the exhaust valves would develop a hot spot and lose there ability to seal , the cure was to make the valves rotate and get evenly toasted
so i got some chevy iirc correctly valves collets and the ball bearing retainers and grafted them on
springs took ages to thin down and weaken a bit as previous experiments with heavy springs just broke the fragile
rockers
