Thanks Phil, I have modern 160deg stats which I spun down, I did check them in the pan and both seemed to open at 160deg, reckon I will cycle them a few times though to be safe as you say !

What Lynn said, and

if you are concerned about an airlock, drill a 1/16 or 1/8 " hole through the cap in a convenient position.

This will also allow a tiny bit of water to move about in the riser on the head.
