| 21.8.24. 40/50 VALVES AND VALVE GUIDES. X.2764 We attach a report in connection with P.B. Valve Guides fitted to a car which has run 12,000 miles in France. At the same time we had another car running fitted with cast iron Guides. The P.B. shewed very much less wear - it will be seen the wear is negligible after 12,000 miles.
