thanks all for your interest, I've been reliably informed that this little lot is worth nearly £600, so I think £350 sounds fair?

I know Frog, he says he has 100 sets of em too! The tappets may be the simaler VW ones though, which would lower the price a bit I spose, but even so, aren't proper valves alone worth £350, even from some like Simon Lester at Woodford who is, IMO, the cheapest anywhere. I'll take no less than £300 for the lot, that's gotta be a good deal.

Andy, they need to be sodium filled, many that appear on ebay aren't, or, can't be guaranteed to be, hence their lower prices.

Are the ebays' ones non-Ford (Cosworth) parts ? How can you be sure ? Maybe he has good prices. I would like to know if anybody bought some from him and could tell us if they are not fakes.

That's going to hurt!

Cant remember where i got my new Valve guides from,
but if they aint up to the job, then i'd be interested in the Guides you got
mate.!

how can i tell though!!

the genuine stem seals i got are a very tight fit on them,
so i guess they are ok?
