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

Skunk2’s Alpha Valve Springs for Honda’s D16 series VTEC engines are designed to ensure valvetrain stability and prevent valve float when using performance hi-lift camshafts and/or operating the engine at higher rpms.

Skunk2 Alpha Valve Springs are developed using computer-aided engineering to minimize internal stresses and harmonics. Skunk2 Alpha Valve Springs are CNC-wound using super-clean chrome-silicon vanadium alloy wire, that is then heat treated, tempered, and shot peen stress-relieved to prevent load loss and maximize durability under even the most extreme operating conditions.

Skunk2 Alpha Titanium Retainers for Honda’s D16 series VTEC engines are designed using the latest computer-aided design to ensure that each retainer is optimized for both strength and weight reduction. Titanium retainers serve to reduce the reciprocating mass that the valve spring must control at higher rpms, resulting in improved valvetrain stability and horsepower. All Skunk2 titanium retainers are precision CNC machined from aircraft grade 6AL4V titanium for the ultimate in precision and durability.
