You just gave him some false information!!! The stem on the valve is not nitrate coated. Also, if you can remove the "so called" nitrate coating with a type of cleaner, then it is not a true nitrate coated valve and therefore not legal.
Sorry about that. I didn't know the correct pronunciation. "Nor should it come off with anything else except friction from the guide."By the way its Nitride and it doesn't come off with windex
ONLY NKA Legal in Stock Classes as of 9-1-2013
Funny they now allow 3 angle valve grinds
I strongly encourage you to purchase the book for 2014 ( be out soon in late Dec. or early Jan. ) as well as strongly recommend you join AKRA. There is an incredible amount of information in the book about AKRA rules and not just the engine area. Membership has it's privileges.
The rod is not forged, it is manufactured to a higher standard, simply a better quality part, it will not provide a performance gain. It may however be less likely to fail, the original rod was already sufficient for the BSP engine. You would not have to change rods unless you wanted to..what about the new "forged"/performance rod..

Greg... I know firsthand what you go through to make a fast engine. I would put your engine up against ANYONE'S in this country... Bar none. Rock Island has proved this! I wish you would do a thread on what to do between every race for other people to learn from...Only to allow the red clone motors to be build and run with the others..the yellow got in short supply and they let the red ones in with 3 angle valve grinds and stainless pushrods and stainless valves..all as to not make it appear that Jimmy Sims motors were the only ones allowed in the class..what about the new "forged"/performance rod..these motors are becoming just like iPhones..every year there is something new that alot of people think you have to have..monkey see monkey do..no need for all of this if you do regular maintenance on your own motor your self.
