Cortina Mk1 1500GT - Valve Stem Size
perksy - 28/12/23 at 07:50 PM

Hi All

Right the Turkey has been eaten, so its back in the garage

I'm in the process of rebuilding a cylinderhead from a 1966 Mk1 Ford Cortina (Pre Crossflow) 1500 GT engine


My handbook doesn't give the valve stem size and its tolerance for both the inlet and exhaust valves

Don't suppose by any chance anyone has that info ?

Thanks

Happy seasonal spanner twirling!

Might be worth posting this question on Turbo-sport forum (see thread: http://www.turbosport.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1250990) and Retrorides forum too. See also: https://www.buysellcortina.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/53312-1500gt-valve-sizes/

Any useful info here: https://www.classicfordspares.co.uk/categories/classic-ford-spares-engine-camshaft-and-valves?vehicle=cortina-mark-1-113e-118e-rhd-114e-119e-lhd />
Is this for a Cortina, Locost or some other interesting vehicle?

Cheers
Mike
