Primarily it's lead replacement, also acts as upper cylinder lube.
Get it from Repco-Autobarn-AutoOne etc.

Cost is around $16 for 1L, which will do 1,000L of fuel.
:wink:

Good stuff- it won't crap your plugs up like LRP or Castrol Valvemaster additive can.

From memory I got quoted 35 bucks a valve for hardened seats supplied and fitted to the head - so for 140 bucks one off it doesnt take long for them to pay themselves off !

Er guys, there's NO ROOM for hardened seats in my 1310's head- ze exhaust and intake valves are just toooo big! :P

(one way I keep ahead of Kazjim's 998 turbo...) :lol:

Yeah and I DO have hardened seats in the wife's 1293 (if I ever get the car finished...)
They cost me about $10 each to get in from UK and I got them fitted for nix- head bored by a toolroom and the seats shrunk in with liquid nitrogen. 8)
Sorry, I can't get any more done at that price..
