The above car is with us for overhaul and we are instructed
by the owner to make sure that existing valves are replaced by
those of the correct type.

We find that there is affixed to the cylinder head a plate
showing that the inlet valves are EX.12089. As we are requiring
four of these and are unable to supply them from stock, we shall
be glad if you will please advise us whether you can supply and
if so, shall be glad if you will kindly do so.
