I'm 3/4 way through putting my engine back together and noticed that the exhaust valve springs are green and the intake ones are red...Is this right? I would have thought it would be the other way round (i.e. red = hot=exhaust green = cold = intake)
Ive searched high and low for an answer but google (actually, probably by search skills) has let me down.

ok, just looked in the BGB and its correct, red intake, green is exhaust.
I saw on a Honda forum and they say (rightly or wrongly) that it is the other way round....
