I've got a guy here at work offering to sell me some "terry valve springs". Ive done some net searching and have come up with some motor bike sites.
He says the ones he has are made for minis but he bought them to put into a Honda sidecar, but they were pulling the heads off the valve so he stopped using them.
Anyway my question is does anyone know anything about them?

Terry's Springs were one of the best valve spring companies in England in the 60s. :D
But that is sort of like saying that Lucas were one of the best electrical component companies in England in the 60s. 8)
