HIGH PERFORMANCE BRONZE VALVE GUIDES

APE valve guides are designed to take the abuse of today's modern high horsepower engines. They are made from special bronze alloy to resist wear and heat. No other valve guide that you can buy will out-perform APE guides. Fact is we supply our guides to nearly all of the top cylinder head shops. Major police departments use them in their patrol bikes which see severe use.


APE guides are precision machined with the bores finished to size.
They are designed to fit lower in the head to clear high lift cams, and use APE seals or factory OEM seals. Sold in sets of 16

EXTENDED ADJUSTER SCREWS

Some very high lift cams have reduced base circles to keep the nose of the cam on the rocker pad. This can cause a problem with the valve adjuster screws being too short to get proper valve lash. Theser high performance screws are longer than Suzuki screws and solve the ptoblem.

ERA1100S Complete set $62.95


HARDWELDED ROCKER ARMS

The cam contact surface on all screw adjuster type Suzuki rocker arms is a soft material covered with hard chrome. Under the increased loads of higher spring pressures, cam lifts, etc. the surface caves in allowing the chrome to crack and peel off. This wipes out the rocker and cam lobe.

The solution is welding the contact pads with special hard face rod and regrinding the faces. This service is performed on customer supplied rockers. Note that they can have pad damage.
Remove the adjuster screws. WE DO NOT RETURN ANY ADJUSTER SCREWS.
