I just bent a couple intake valves. If anyone has two extra ones hanging around, please let me know because I would rather not go to the dealer. Either reply here or email me at [email protected]

I doubt anybody here is going to have extras. I don't think they are THAT expensive from Nissan. I was thinking they were like $15/$20 a peice. I could be wrong though...

I was hoping Dee had some extras. Or anybody that has a damaged head that can spare a couple valves. Well, it's worth a shot.

Machined as in what? Like swirl polished or something? Will they work for my stock head? How much do you want for them? Thanks so much!

dee, do you happen to have an extra ca18det stock head lying around? I already bent some exhaust valves, cause when i blew air into the 2 and 3 cylinder while at TDC air was leaking out hrew the manifold. Let me know if you have one or iff any1 has an extra, i dont mind paying for shipping, thanks

I just want to make sure they'll fit my stock head, like they haven't been cut at 5 angles. If they'll fit my stock head, how much do you want for them? Thanks Dee.

I think $12 a valve is fair + shipping. I have 8 total, so make sure that's all you need.

The dealer got some for me, but I appreciate your help Dee. Your price was fair, I just need to get this thing running.

im surprised the dealer could get anything for you. mine usually cant get me squat. they did get that timing gear though, which was a relief. couldnt get the backing plate though, so i had to "recondition" my old on in a vise.

It's a big dealer, plus the guy that works in parts is a hardcore compact enthusiast. He built a highly modded fd and a b18 civic and is excited about my project. I don't see why your dealer can't get you stuff; my dealer can get basically anything, unless the part no longer exists. Most of the parts I need aren't stocked at this dealer, but they have them shipped over in 2 business days.
