Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the main function of a valve stem seal?
   The main function of a valve stem seal is to wipe oil from the valve stem as it moves. This stops oil from leaking down the valve guides into the combustion chamber. It helps to prevent oil consumption.
2. How do I know if my valve seals are bad?
   The most common sign is a puff of white or blue smoke from your exhaust on engine startup. You may also notice excessive oil consumption without any visible external leaks.
3. Is this a full set for my V8 engine?
   Yes, this set of 16 seals is a complete set. It provides one seal for each of your 8 intake and 8 exhaust valves on your SBC engine.
4. Do I need to remove the cylinder heads to install these?
   No, you can install these without removing your cylinder heads. You will need to use a special valve spring compressor tool. You will also need a way to keep the valves closed while you are working.
5. What is the benefit of a Viton seal over a standard rubber seal?
   Viton is a synthetic rubber. It is much more resistant to high heat, chemicals, and oil than standard rubber. As a result, Viton seals have a much longer service life.
6. Can I install these myself?
   You can install them yourself if you have the proper tools and mechanical knowledge. Otherwise, we recommend that you have a professional mechanic install them for you.
7. Do you offer nationwide shipping?
