well....... By John - 03/27/2002 3:55:51 PM; IP 12.227.26.153 I can't give you a personal experience answer because i've never built a serious enough fe to have to make an upgrade like that. However, i will say that getting steel end stands will NOT transfer the stress away from the shafts. If anything, it will put more stress on the shaft because now the end stand won't flex with the shaft, therefore putting all the torque on the shaft. I also dont think that the end shaft is the sole cause for less precise valve operation. I believe it is a combination of the shaft and stands. So, getting steel stands will certainly help with more contolled valve operation, but the best way to give integrity to your valvetrain is to replace both the end stands and the shafts.

This thread, so far...
