Hi Folks
Looking for some parts for a customer doing up a D311 out of a 212.
 As best as i can see the
Guides are 4F8359 (looking for 8)
Exhaust Valves are 4F2719 (looking for 4)
Inlet Valves are 4F5856 (looking for 4)
Anyone got any ideas ? I believe they are 45deg seats as opposed to 60deg on the later ones.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Cheers
Dave Tennent

If you can't find the guides; I would just make a set from cast iron bar stock. Or bore em out, sleeve them with a thinner guide and hone to size.
Valves; If not available, find ones that are close in size diameter etc. May need one longer so you can cut new keeper grooves. You may have to install new seat inserts if the original cast iron seat (head ) are rusted and or pitted and can't take a grind.
How bad are the originals? Pictures?
Being a machinist this is how I look at fixing things.
