Dont bother to replace them , Ive never put them back on and no other make engine uses them. You would need a pretty extreme valve bounce to dislodge collets.

CJ how much more is the LRP petrol than standard?
Yes, LRP is more expensive than U/L but it does have a higher octane rating and therefore your Minor will get better performance on it and better fuel economy.

If I did fit an U/L head I might still use LRP for those reasons!
Cheers John - all comments IMHO
