Has anyone ever tried using different valves in a C15? reason I ask, I have ordered some new valves from a dealer but then in the back of my mind, I thought I have a load of new valves in the shed, so I had a quick look to try a comparison and found that a Toyota valve almost the same size, just the stem is 15 thou thicker, so in theory I could just ream out the old guide to the correct size for the stem, I would have to use the colletts for these valves and what are the differences in the valves grade of  metal wise inlet and outlet.
What does the team think?
