Get everything you need to seal up a cylinder head job with a Platinum Valve Regrind Set. Also known as a VRS or top end gasket set, a valve regrind set contains the gaskets and seals required whenever the cylinder head is removed, whether for a head gasket replacement, valve grind, head resurface or general top end overhaul. Once a head has been lifted, the original gaskets have been compressed and can't be safely reused, so fitting a complete new set is the only way to guarantee a reliable seal on reassembly.
Common reasons for a top end rebuild include a blown head gasket, overheating damage, loss of compression, burnt or leaking valves and excessive oil consumption caused by worn valve stem seals, often noticed as blue smoke on start up. Tackling these repairs with a complete set saves sourcing individual gaskets one by one and ensures every joint on the top end is sealed with fresh components.
Platinum valve regrind sets are precision engineered to match the original parts for a direct replacement fit. Head gaskets are made from high grade graphite with stainless steel bore bindings or Multi Layered Steel (MLS), depending on the engine, to cope with high combustion pressures. Valve stem seals are made from Viton for excellent durability and resistance to failure, while the remaining gaskets and seals are produced from high quality materials suited to each application.
