Piston Rings |
| Piston rings act to create a sealed chamber for compression and also to control oil flow inside a cylinder. When replacing piston rings, have your cylinders honed to ensure proper seating of the rings. |

Valve Guides  |
| You should always replace your guides when rebuilding your heads. The newer style valve guides are highly reliable, reduce friction and wear, and they look real cool too. |

Valve Springs |
| When rebuilding your heads, you should always replace the springs. We have seen broken springs come close to destroying a recently rebuilt motor. New springs are inexpensive insurance against catastrophic failure. |

Valve Stem Seals |
| These are the small seals that mate at the top of the valve stem. They act to keep oil from leaking into the cylinder. If you have a small amount of white smoke while starting your car in the morning, it could be bad stem seals. |

Valve Cover Gaskets |
| These gaskets should be replaced every time that you adjust your valves. You should also put a little gasket sealer on the inside of the cover where the gasket mounts to the cover. This should prevent the oil leaks that sometimes occur when there isn't a really good seal. Buy an extra pair or two to have on hand next time you adjust your valves! |
