Description
DESCRIPTION
The valve springs are made from chrome silicon alloy wire and incorporate a "bee-hive" design. Valve spring retainers and locks are common from
valve-to-valve. The valve spring seat is integral with the valve stem oil seal, which incorporates a garter spring to maintain consistent lubrication control
to the valve stem.
The valve springs are unique for intake compared to exhaust. Both have different lengths and are wound in opposite directions. The valve springs are
color coded, intake spring is right hand coil direction with grey dye on the top coils, and the exhaust spring is left hand coil direction with a blue dye on
the top coils.
