	New Crankcase We only carry new dual relief cases. These cases are far superior to the old single relief cases. The oil galley of the dual relief case is twice as big in diameter and there's more webbing in the case. more >>

	Alternator-Generator Stand It's possible to put a generator on an alternator stand but not the other way around. This stand holds either a generator or an alternator in place. Note: If you are buying this to change from 6v to 12v don't more >>

	Cylinder Heads All of our rebuilt cylinder heads are built from non-cracked or non-welded head cores (rebuilt welded heads will usually crack again next to the weld). Bad guides are replaced and new exhaust valves are installed along with a three angle more >>

	Valve Guides If you're rebuilding your own heads, you will probably need guides. Oversize guides refer to the outer diameter. Note: When installing, heat the head and freeze the guide; they will go in easier. We advise you not to try this more >>

	Cylinder Head Nuts And Washers These nuts and washers hold the heads on. The washers are thick so they won't deform under heat and torque. The torque on 10mm nuts is 28 ft. lb. and the 8mm nuts is 18 ft.lb. One trick is to more >>

	Valve Cover Gaskets This gasket goes between the valve cover and the head. We usually put them on dry. If they leak, use a sealer called Gasgacinch on the valve cover side of the gasket only and just under the bottom of the more >>

	Reground Crankshaft These are used cranks with reground rod and main journals. Each crank is checked for cracks and wallowed out dowel pin holes. We only grind to 10 under, 20 under and 30 under; any further and the bearings are getting more >>

	Crankshaft Timing Gear This is a steel gear that goes on the crank to turn the cam. To get the gear off the crank, use a puller that is designed specifically for this purpose. Never use a hammer and a punch. When the more >>

	Distributor Drive Gear This brass gear goes on the crank to turn the distributor drive shaft. When putting on a used gear, make sure that the gear is not deformed. Note: When putting the gear on we use a propane torch like we more >>

	Distributor Drive This gear matches up with the brass gear that is on the crank. Please read CRANK DISTRIBUTOR DRIVE GEAR for more info. We put this gear in before we put the case halves together. To do this, install the gear more >>

	Distributor Drive Shims These are the shims that set the endplay of the distributor drive gear. You must have no less than two shims. Read DISTRIBUTOR DRIVE for more info. more >>

	Flywheel Seal This seal goes behind the flywheel. It should be replaced every time the flywheel is taken off. If your seal is leaking, take the flywheel off and pry the seal out. Now remove the shims and call a friend. Have more >>

	Crankshaft Pulley Woodruff Key This key holds the oil deflector in place as well as aligns the front pulley. Note: Put it on before you install the crank into the case, again using a brass drift and making sure it is flat. more >>

	Flywheel These flywheels have been reconditioned and are sold on an exchange basis. If your flywheel has a groove where the clutch rides, it's a good idea to replace it. Read CRANKSHAFT ENDPLAY SHIMS for important instructions on flywheel installation. more >>

	Crankshaft Endplay Shims These shims set the endplay of the crankshaft. It is very important that you get this right. The endplay should be between .003" and .005". Too loose and you will beat out the rear main bearing, too tight and the more >>

	Flywheel Gland Nut It's really a bolt, but that's what everybody calls it. This bolt holds the flywheel on. If you are using an old one make sure the needle bearings in the pilot bearing are still in the end and that it's more >>

	Reconditioned Rods Most people don't realize that these are one of the most important parts in the motor. When a rod is reconditioned the cap is separated, the bolts taken out and the cap mating surfaces ground. The rod is then put more >>

	Rod Bearings These are the shells that go in the rods and ride on the crank. To determine the size you need, mic the crank on the rod journal; 2.165 to 2.164 is standard, 2.155 to 2.154 is .010 over, 2.145 to more >>

	Camshafts We've had no luck with regrinds, therefore we sell only new camshafts. German cams were the best, but are no longer available. These are the best stock grind cams available at this time. more >>

	Push Rods These rods link the cam to the valves. If you have used rods, make sure that they are straight by rolling them on a flat surface. Inspect the ends and blow air through the tip making sure it comes out more >>

	Cam Followers (Stock Lifters) These ride against the cam. We prefer the Mahle or Scat brand for the upright engines. We personally have had bad luck with regrinds. If you are going to use used ones, clean the head surfaces and put two together more >>

	Push Rod Tubes These tubes go from the case to the heads to house the push rods. They also return the oil from the heads to the case. We highly recommend that you replace these whenever you pull the heads off a 1200 more >>

	Valve Adjusting Screws and Nuts This screw rides against your valve, opening and closing it. These screws do wear out, so check the end that rides on the valve. If you see any pits in the adjusting screw, you will need to replace it. We're more >>

	Intake Valves The two inside valves in the head are the intake valves, which let the gas into the combustion chamber. These don't normally need to be replaced unless they have been ground too far or too many times. On stainless steel more >>

	Exhaust Valves The two outside valves in the head are the exhaust valves, they let the burned fuel out of the head. We recommend that you replace them when you have a valve job done. The old valves can get brittle due more >>

	Valve Springs These springs return the valves back to their seats. You can use your old springs, but make sure that you check them with a spring gauge to see if they still have the same tension. Heavy duty springs are recommended more >>

	Oil Pumps The oil pump is the heart of the engine, so it is very important to choose the right one. When ordering a pump you will need to know if your case is a single or dual relief, if you have more >>

	Oil Pump Sealing Nuts These nuts prevent oil from leaking around the oil pump studs. They should be replaced every time you take the oil pump and/or cover off. Note: The red side of the nut goes towards the cover and washers are not more >>

	Oil Sump Screens This screen fits in the sump around the pick up tube. It's more of a rock catcher than anything else. We recommend an external filter in conjunction with the screen. Used screens are fine as long as they are clean. more >>

	Oil Sump Plate This is the plate on the bottom of the motor. To install one on a 40hp-1600cc motor, proceed in this order: Gasket against the case, the screen, another gasket, and then the plate. Now put the copper washers on the more >>
