Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) Exhaust Valves.

Referring to RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} 9/MS.15.3.35, will you please produce a set of Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) exhaust valves to give the effect you suggest of the large diameter being shrouded by the guide in the closed position.

We should like to try these on No. 5 engine if they are available in time.
