What is a beehive valve spring?

A beehive valve spring gets its name from its shape, tapering down to a smaller diameter at the top. This design allows for a smaller retainer, which reduces the overall mass in the valvetrain. Less mass helps the engine rev more freely and can improve performance.

What does 'ovate wire' mean for a valve spring?

Ovate wire refers to the cross-sectional shape of the spring wire itself. An ovate shape allows for a smaller, lighter spring that can still provide the necessary spring force. This reduction in mass is beneficial for engine performance, especially at higher RPMs.

Does this valve spring come with retainers?

This product listing is for the valve spring only. Retainers are sold separately and must be chosen based on your specific cylinder head and camshaft requirements.

Product Details

The ovate wire design in this GSC Power Division valve spring is a smart choice for engine builders. This shape allows for a smaller, lighter spring that still handles the necessary pressures, which means less mass moving around your valvetrain. Less mass means the engine can rev more freely and the spring can keep up with aggressive camshaft profiles.

This is a universal beehive spring, meaning it's designed to work across a range of applications where a beehive style spring is called for. Beehive springs are popular because they allow for a smaller retainer diameter, which further reduces valvetrain mass and potential for valve float at higher RPMs. This particular spring is well-built and ready to be installed in your next engine project.
