As the thread title - where can I get a replacement car valve stem?

I'm trying to build a monsterously powerful bottle rocket...

Are they even called 'car valve stems'?

Couple of quid here http://drupal.thedonkeysanctuary.org.uk/donations and your address to andy_howett at yahoo.co.uk and you can have a couple of old tubes with car-type (Schrader) valves. May or may not have holes in...

Thanks, but I need the one ones that bolt on, to ensure it can contain a few hundred psi.

Ah spot on! The kid in Halfords told me they didn't exist.
