I shall check my new ones with a magnet tomorrow.

Has anybody looking into a valved Larini box with an endoscope? If we found out what they look like inside we can put similar internals into 4200 boxes and then put valves on them.

I can confirm using my endoscope that the larini unvalved is an empty cylinder with absolutely nothing inside what so ever.

Seems like a lot of money for boxes with nothing inside. Wonder how they differ in sound to gutting the originals & why.

I'd say it was down to the metal thinkness/compound.

The correct actuator for Larinis (Helical HA46001-000-01) is zinced mild steel.
