<VV> Valve rotators

[Geoffrey A Johnson]

It is for harder working engines.  To keep the valves on the exhaust 
(which would presumably be hotter on the harder working engine) in better 
shape.

When I rebuilt this engine, years ago, I installed those valve rotators just because I had them at hand and had been readed that were used on FC engines but, have never known why. I just know that they rotate the exhaust valves and it is good on FCs but have no idea on real differences or advantages depending on engine usage. I have not enough light on my old brain to understand why valve rotators on FCs and not cars. It should be a technical reason but, can't find it.
