Thanks
Where to get the parts in Kandy, Srilanka or to get the parts in other countries besides Srilanka?

I do not know that much about the older Engines and I do not think I have any Manuals that would tell me if there is no separate Valve Seats in the Head.

(A lot of Car gasoline Engines have no separate valve seats or separate Valve Guides and even my Volvo Diesel has no separate Valve Seat; but my 300D has them.)

The main thing is if the Valve guides are worn you cannot count on the Valve seating area being reground centered.
