47712, VT COMP regarding Seat Locaters??? do i need it?
Posted by pn0ymahal, Apr-28-03 10:20 AM
i talk with Nick at VT and he said if i get Ferrea SS valves i will need Ferrea or Seat Locater for the Ferrea SS Valves? i ask him why, and he said you will need these new ones? but i sorta got him by saying, you can use your stock ones but its better to get new ones, and he said yah. just to let you guys know he said its like $40-50 for these seat locaters. are seat locaters just the normal 'seats'?
also he said he can get Lucus 440cc saturated for $200? how does Lucus compare to Accel and Rc injectors? he told me Accel is like stock etc etc
thanks

so do you guys think its worth it to put new seat locaters in?
thanks

ok wrong. Mike at RRE said, it relates to the valve springs, and retainers. so since it relates to it, do i need new seat locaters if i do 'decide' to get crane valve springs and titanium retainers?
thanks

I doubt that you absolutely "have" to get them, but VT is very big on just doing it right the first time so you don't have to do it again in the near future. If they highly recommend it, that's what I would do (assuming that I have the $ for it hehe).
