I don't know if this is the same chart that Craig and JW are referring to, it's been around the hobby for years and I know I've posted it here before.


That's the chart. The gray line from 60 to 90MPH at 19 Spec-Wt is my 1955 Patrician. You can see that sustained driving at 85MPH is "Very likely" to cause valve recession. I can vouch for the accuracy of that! Of course, this chart only applies to non-hardened (original) exhaust seats.
