[DeTomaso] Sodium valves

[Larry Finch]

Rob,

No sodium filled valves on a Cleveland in a Pantera.

On the subject of Cleveland valves, you should know the stockers are friction welded head-to-stem and they are well known for failure at that joint, and subsequent engine damage of varying degree.

One piece stainless steel valves are the standard replacement when heads are rebuilt.
