1984 V65c Cylinder Head Rebuild
« on: February 24, 2015, 05:25:46 AM »
Since I have the motor all apart, I figured I would rebuild it.
It appears you can't find the valve springs for the V65 anymore.  But the all knowing internet came up with a solution and I am looking for some more validation.

According to the internet, it says I can use the Nevada valve spring.  Can anyone verify replacing the two spring setup with the single setup from the Nevada?

That's commonly done with the Lario.

Yes, they will work.  You have to change out the top and bottom spring cups as well.  The Nevada springs are a little larger in diameter.
