Skunk2 Alpha Series Honda/Acura K Series Valve Spring and Titanium Retainer Kit

Skunk2 is proud to introduce its Alpha Valve Spring and Titanium Retainer Kit for Honda's K-series engines. Each kit includes Skunk2's high-quality dual valve springs and race-proven titanium retainers that are the result of nearly two decades of racing and engine building experience. Each Alpha Valve Spring is manufactured exclusively from super-clean, chrome-silicone wire milled in Japan. By using inner and outer springs mated together through a slight interference fit and with differing frequencies, Alpha Valve Springs are able to prevent valve float and maintain valvetrain stability at engine speeds in excess of 10,000 rpm. Skunk2's industry-leading Alpha Titanium Retainers are designed to significantly reduce valvetrain mass, resulting in more horsepower and improved valvetrain stability. Similar to Skunk2's already popular Pro Series Titanium Retainers, Alpha Titanium Retainers feature radius-cut edges for additional rocker arm clearance and reduced weight, strategically positioned lightening grooves, and reduced overall heights for better valve seal clearance and even further weight reduction. Alpha Titanium Retainers are manufactured using the latest 3D CAD (Computer Aided Design) and FEA (Finite Element Analysis) to ensure that each is optimized for strength as well as for reduced weight. Skunk2 engineers then test and prove their designs on the engine dyno as well as the race track. Once approved for manufacturing, only medical-grade titanium that's been ultrasonically inspected and certified is used. Following CNC machining, each retainer is then individually inspected to ensure proper hole diameter, taper, and that each are free from machining defects to ensure proper installed valve spring heights and pressures.This Part Fits: Year Make Model Submodel 2002-2006 Acura RSX Base 2002-2006 Acura RSX Type-S 2004-2008 Acura TSX Base 2003-2005 Honda Accord DX 2003-2007 Honda Accord EX 2007 Honda Accord EX-L 2003-2007 Honda Accord LX 2006 Honda Accord LX Special Edition 2005 Honda Accord SE 2007 Honda Accord Special Edition 2006-2007 Honda Accord Value Package 2008 Honda Civic MUGEN Si 2002-2011 Honda Civic Si 2002-2009 Honda CR-V EX 2007-2009 Honda CR-V EX-L 2002-2009 Honda CR-V LX 2005-2006 Honda CR-V SE 2003-2004 Honda Element DX 2003-2011 Honda Element EX 2004-2011 Honda Element LX 2007-2010 Honda Element SC
