lash caps

This is the place to ask questions about your engine components like cams, valves, pistons… just anything that is generally "engine" specific. This also includes questions about exhaust systems such as exhaust manifolds, piping size, mufflers, ect...

Yes, you HAVE to use Ferrea lash caps on the exhaust side if you use the 005 grind Crane cam. i have the PN for them, biut it's on my other computer..


Ok, I found it. You need Ferrea lash caps PN #C10008 to fit the valve stems. And they are required with the 005 or you will destroy the valves.
