I didn't check out my valve adjustment screws last time I adjusted the valves and they seem a bit noisy to me.. (BTW how noisy should they be??) so I was going to pickup a new set of the adjuster screws to have on hand in case mine look worn the next time I go down there. Wondering if anyone has an opinion on these ones for my 1.7 from Pelican:

I dont know what pelican is selling, but I did get some swivil fet adjusters many years ago form some vendor, nice idea, but there were poorly made, the ball pounded thru teh foot pretty quickly and i had to replace them. i belive they were empi brand, not happy with it.
I'd make sure you stick with quality real porsche stuff, or stuff that has a known good reputation. if you get cheapo chinese junk, it may look nice, but not be a good alloy our heat treated right. talk with pelican and see what they say about them, then call rich at HPH 650 364-6234 and see what he has, he tends to stay on top of his part quailty and wont steer you wrong. |
