Colsibro Race Guides

A reliable cylinder head should have freshly cut well defined seat angles being cut concentric to its guide bore enabling good sealing without the contact area being too  thin.  A thin contact area may be great on a race engine that’s stripped every few meetings and it may gain a few extra cubic feet per minute of airflow on paper but its not good for RELIABILITY or your wallet.  At CJS we gain airflow in other more thoughtful ways.

Valve guides are seriously important; they must be wear resistant, be sized and  honed correctly for oil retentive properties and have an aero dynamic profile for improved  airflow.  CJS designed COLSIBRO BULLET NOSED RACE GUIDES attain this in every way.  These guides are flawless and totally finish off your porting job by making it look crisp and professional.  However gas flowing is not about looks but who wants their expensive Ducati heads back looking like they have been attacked by a knife and fork and at £88 a set who can refuse the benefits of above.

On every port job over the level of a stage 1 CJS may refuse the work unless colsibro guides are fitted  due to all the reliability reasons stated above.
