302 Stainless Steel Blow-Off Valve Spring

Tired of inconsistent timing belt tension on your high-performance B-Series engine? The SpeedFactory Racing B-Series HD Timing Belt Tensioner Spring offers a reliable solution. Crafted from robust 302 stainless steel, it provides superior durability and corrosion resistance. This HD spring boasts a spring rate over seven times stronger than the OEM equivalent, ensuring your timing belt maintains the correct tension, especially crucial when using stiffer, heavy-duty racing timing belts like those from TODA or Gates Racing. Insufficient tension can lead to excessive belt deflection, poor cam timing control, and the risk of the belt jumping teeth, potentially causing severe engine damage. Conversely, relying on manual tensioning methods can result in non-repeatable settings or over-tightening, stressing the belt and causing premature cam journal wear. The result is a consistently tensioned belt, eliminating skipping and cam journal wear issues. This tensioner spring is compatible with all B-Series engines, including B16, B17, B18, and B20 models. It comes with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. A crucial installation note: remember to reuse the rubber sleeve from the OEM spring, as it provides essential vibration damping to enhance the longevity of the new spring.
