When I started work a few colleagues with Ford 10s seemed to spend as much time grinding valves as I did (stellite faces were a popular mod). I understand some Ford 10 have the rod studs curiously forged as part of the rod.

As one who has contributed a very regular tech artilce to a car club mag for 45 years I rather envied those mags. Their audience renewed every 7 years or so whereas, as with the Seven forum, many of the car club members are the original fogies so articles cannot be regularly repeated.
