Twin Cam and Evo Big Twin

Our valves are manufactured in-house from 21-4N stainless steel with polished tuliped heads. The backside is machined with a .750" radius to increase the flow characteristics and nitrided along with the stem to minimize wear. The valve seating area measures .060" wide on the exhaust valves and .045" wide on the intake valves. The head diameter has been increased by 20 percent to 1.687" on the exhaust and 1.937" on the intake. Valve stem clearance is fit to .001" on the intake and .002" on the exhaust.

Our new High Flow valves are the highest quality ever developed for HD. The intake is made of solid Tool Steel tested at "68" Rockwell with polished head and nitrided stem. 

The exhaust is made of Stainless Tool Steel with polished head and nitrided stem, resisting distortion and wear at temperatures in excess of 2200 degrees. These valves are guaranteed for the life of your engine.
