Default Y8 valves in a A6 Head
Has anyone used the larger Y7/Y8 Valves on the A6 head?

I'm 99.90999999% sure the stems lengths are differant. Besides, D's don't really need larger valves unless your going big bore on a sleeved block.

This is getting confusing...I'm pretty sure he's talking about using a z6 cam in a y8 head.
