izzo Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Anyone have some valves that will work on a W53? I pulled the head off the goon and it has at least one burned valve, exhaust on #1 (right where the in/ex gasket was blown, go figure) But i have low compression on #4 also so im guessing they are toast... Lemmy know Link to comment
yello620 Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 If you cant find used, consider calling R.J.Templeton in Portland. Super cheap prices with Datsun parts in stock and they ship too. I got everything for my motor from them about 60k miles ago, nothing has failed yet. Link to comment

izzo Posted April 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Yup, seen that on olddatsuns.com But the W58 is different sized? To bad, i just bought one for 40 bucks to get me by for now with the L16 i bought. Link to comment
