FTI Valve Spring Shim Kit - (1.450" OD)
These are premium quality valve spring shims.
Refacing valves and the grinding of valve seats causes loss of metal. This loss of metal results in the loss of proper spring pressure. To restore the proper spring tension, one must replace the lost material by installing the correct thickness shim under the spring.
All shims are made from prime quality, hardened cold rolled steel and all shims meet or exceed OEM specifications.
This kit contains .015″ thick, .030″ thick and .060″ thick sets of 16 of each.
DESIGN FEATURES
Both sides are flat and without serrations or marks of any kind.
- Non-serrated shims do not damage the spring pad area on today’s aluminum cylinder heads.
- Non-serrated shims lay flat so as not to set up and harmonics in the spring.
- Non-serrated shims lay flat so as not to introduce any lateral loads on the valve spring, stem or guide.
Don't compromise high quality for a low price.
