They often have a cap on top of the valve stem that the rocker rides on. As I understand the Sodium filled valves have a tendency to break. Chuck

Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

I've heard of Ford HD 292 engines having exhaust valve stems that were sodium filled. Cliff reported in another thread that the stems were ~7/16 in diameter, but I haven't seen any prior to this. WoW!  Click the link below to see pictures of the engine for sale on eBay with a cylinder head picture that shows the size of the exhaust valve stems adjacent to the intake valve stems. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Used-Ford-292-V8-Engine-/112160346844?hash=item1a1d4712dc:g:5OsAAOSwOyJX9~cv
