> They are rusty now, of course.....

> Can cast iron be chrome plated?

> Anyone know Le Suer swap dates? Is it always last weekend in April?

> And finally - when I eventually get the VERY stuck exhaust valve out of
> the big Chapman, it will be worthless - can anyone make valves with VERY
> long stems? This baby has a valve stem that must be nearly a foot long.
> (thus, it's impossible to get out in one piece - that's over 6" of rusted
> valve in guide)
> No way to buy one that will be even close like we can the other engines.
