The intake valves (1) are made of heat resistant steel, and have chrome plated stems to prevent scuffing. The exhaust valves are made of iron alloys (2). The intake and exhaust valves are both similar in head diameter and overall length, but they have unique face angles which makes them non-interchangeable. The valves are distinguished by unique dimples on the exhaust valve head (2).
The exhaust valve springs are made from high strength, chrome silicon steel. The exhaust valve springs are also exhaust brake compatible.
