    Hey guys I'm in process of replacing a burnt valve on my 78 Hilux 20r. I only need one valve the rest look good. Problem is I can't find any to purchase anywhere. Besides dropping don't serious coin at lce for a performance set. I'm just trying to get my rig back on the road. I've found these on eBay but i feel that's a gamble.

    Does any one have a part number or link to some valves?

    LCs valve kit is pretty complete, good for the price. I've installed 22r valves in 20R heads in the past, just 1mm oversize and the 20R seats can be cut for 22R valves without problems. I believe the stems are a tad longer with the 22R valves though. After installing 22R valve a little blending in the port will help your performance a tad. You can change just the intake or just the exhaust to 22R size for budget.

    I want to say yotashop.com sells some separately.

    Edit after looking into it they don't have them for the 20r.
