Valve Spring: Description and Operation






DESCRIPTION





The valve springs are a beehive design and made from high strength chrome silicon steel. The springs are common for intake and exhaust applications. Valve guide seals are rubber overmolded on a steel support cylinder with a garter spring at the seal lip. The seals are not integrated with the valve spring seat. The steel valve spring retainers are designed for use with beehive springs and the valve spring retainer locks are a three bead Butt type design to promote valve rotation.
