Hello All


Okay I know that alloy heads have valve seat inserts, however a 3.3 XF head, would this have hardened valve seats as standard so ULP can be used without any upper cylinder lubrication?


Regards

Hey, what about the XE engines, cause I've been running mine on normal unleaded. Is that good? I thought all the alloy headed X-flo's were unleaded!

3.3L was LOW compression and should run on unleaded. All alloy heads will have steel vavle seat inserts. Unleaded petrol was introduced in Australia from the beginning of 1986
