πŸ› οΈ In-House Machining Process

  • Soda Blasted: Castings are blasted with Sodium Bicarbonate. Because baking soda is water-soluble, there is zero risk of abrasive media clogging oil passages.
  • Pressure Testing: Tested to 60 PSI to ensure no cracks or porosity leaks.
  • Surfacing: All heads are resurfaced on our Rottler S85A for a precision gasket-sealing surface.
  • Valve Job: Multi-angle valve job performed; every port is Vacuum Tested to ensure valves are seated 100% airtight.
