Review on Enhance Your SUBARU Performance with our New Intake Exhaust Engine Valves Kit - Fit for SUBARU 2.2L 2.5L SOHC EJ22E EJ25 Engines (1999-2010) by Ross Sugden

I bought these for a 2005 Subaru Forester 2.5L EJ253 SOHC engine. They arrived individually wrapped in plastic and together in a small cardboard box. Shafts, surfaces and tips are ground to a high gloss, but all other plastic surfaces have a rough "cast" surface (see photo). The intake valves weigh an average of 54.4 grams and are 120.50–120.56 mm long. Exhaust valves weighed an average of 46.8 grams and were 121.60–121.63 mm long. Movement length: inside: 120.6 mm, outside: 121.7 mm. I lapped the valves onto the valve seats and checked the circuit and all the valves were straight and concentric. All valves moved smoothly in the valve guides and the shaft diameter was also within the normal range. Overall I would trust them as a replacement valve kit that will fit and seal properly with no issues, but performance-oriented enthusiasts should look elsewhere.

Measurements were taken using a Mitutoyo 8-inch digital caliper and a Sharper Image kitchen scale (1 gram resolution).
