I have reviewed all the messages from the foum regarding cryogenic processing of engine parts. However, it lacks good/significant documentation regarding the different processes done.
Does anyone know the source of technical articles regarding this process. There must be some University site with this information. Yes, I have searched the MIT site without success. Anyone have the information? Thanks, L. McChesney |

The 2004 GSXR 600 from Suzuki comes with titanium valves from the factory. I can assure you that if they only lasted to 2000 miles they would not be used. This engine revs to 16k rpm with forged steel rods, titanium valves and aluminum valve spring retainers. I am pretty sure they are using aluminum retainers again that is what they used in the 01-03 motors. I hear at least 30k miles before a valve job might need to be done.
