If you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, especially if you're working with performance camshafts or modifying the valvetrain, you'll need to ensure proper valve lash adjustment. These lash caps from Supertech are designed to sit between the valve stem and the rocker arm or cam lobe, providing a precise surface for adjustment and reducing wear on the valve stem tip. They are a small but critical component for maintaining correct valve clearance, which is essential for engine performance and longevity.

This particular lash cap has a 5.5mm diameter and a thickness of 2.60mm, with a depth of 2.8mm. Supertech is known for making well-built valvetrain components, and these caps are made to handle the stresses of engine operation. Using the correct size and thickness lash cap helps ensure your valve lash is set accurately, preventing issues like valve float or excessive noise. It's a straightforward part, but getting the right size is key for a successful rebuild.
