Because i have a nice set of 33.5 mm oversize stainless steel intake valves ( received a gift) from Manley and i would like to use the same as exhaust valves.
They are really nice. I know, it does not matter which stock size valves i'm going to use.
But if possible, i would like to take Manley.

Rob, currently i'm busy, but your scan will be on the way within the next days.

Nippon....I'd go with the Kibblewhite exhaust valves. There were a lot of problems with many Manley valves as the stem tips weren't hardened. I believe later valves were but still. ::) Jay mentioned the problems with Manley in a thread a while ago too. Orient Express was the only bike supplier that carried them recently and cb750 valves were not listed.

I skimmed thru the catalogue, didn't see any motorcycles, they may have gotten out of the MC biz.

Nippon, why not take a look at the APE exhaust valves that Jay sells in the add at the top of the page.
They  come in 28 and 28.5mm and are or are like nimonic stainless alloy.
At $160 a set they are good value for money and if they are good enough for top flight drag racers, I'm sure the'll be fine in the SOHC.
