which I have literally waited to have since 1972.
Back when they were new the salesmen would not even talk to me.
Iv'e mentioned it before in other threads, one of my "Bucket list" - Obsession cars.
The restoration is going slow but today I got my new valve-train.
7mm stem valves instead of 8mm and the savings are significant at 30 g to 39 g per valve and retainer.
I am not going to raise my RPM but these should be much better for cam and lifter life.
If the heads were not already "Done" I might look at similar tricks for the 327.
