Glanza_cl Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 mine are on the way out and i cant be running no more than 160bhp i think mine have gone down to such a large change in compression as i fitted my fmic, relocation kit, etc all at once as well as changing the boost levels.

BoostJunkie Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 reason i am asking as i'm forging my engine as we speakand i bought the oem valve stem seals from sam (sheekey) and i was then told from the guy helping me put thecar back together that they will be no good, but toby says he uses them in 300hp builds?if they are no good where can i get aftermarket?

Glanza_cl Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 if you need stronger aftermarket stem seals i'm sure Dave or Toby would stock them on there websites but as they don't i cant imagine you would need uprated ones, i am just going to replace with oem ones.

1998glanzav Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 As said, the OEM ones should be fine for your forged rebuild. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
