Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why should I use a valve lash cap on my stainless steel valves?
A: Stainless steel valves are prone to tip erosion under the high-stress, high-RPM conditions of racing. A lash cap acts as a sacrificial barrier, absorbing the impact from the rocker arm to prevent the valve tip from mushrooming or wearing down, which helps maintain consistent valve lash.
Q: Are these lash caps compatible with all GX200 clone valves?
A: These caps are specifically designed for the Burris SSV series stainless steel valves. They provide a seamless fit for these specific tips to ensure accurate clearance measurements.
Q: How do lash caps help with engine tuning?
A: By providing a consistent, hardened surface for the rocker arm to strike, lash caps prevent the "power-robbing play" that occurs when valve tips wear unevenly. This makes it much easier to achieve and maintain precise valve lash settings for optimal engine performance.
Q: Do I need to replace these every time I adjust my valves?
A: Not necessarily, but you should inspect them during every top-end teardown. If you notice signs of pitting, cracking, or significant wear on the face of the cap, it is time to replace them to protect the integrity of your valve train.
