Using high-quality valve guides in your cylinder head is essential for longevity, reliability, and performance. Integrated Engineering valve guides are designed to directly replace OEM valve guides, featuring correct outside diameter measurements to provide the ideal press-fit into your cylinder head.

 

LEADING FEATURES

  • OEM OUTSIDE MEASUREMENTS FOR A DIRECT OEM REPLACEMENT
  • ENGINEERED, DESIGNED, AND MANUFACTURED IN USA
  • ULTRA-HIGH CONCENTRICITY FOR EXACT VALVE PLACEMENT
  • PROPRIETARY BRONZE ALLOY IMPROVES HEAT TRANSFER
  • IMPROVES WEAR RESISTANCE AND REDUCES FRICTION
  • INCREASED THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY EXTENDS VALVE LIFE
  • AERODYNAMIC TIP INCREASES AIRFLOW TO INTAKE/EXHAUST PORTS

 

WHAT IS A VALVE GUIDE?

Valve guides are small cylindrical bushings that press into a cylinder head, giving valves a place to reciprocate with minimal friction and wear. They facilitate valve movement and keep them perfectly centered on the valve seats. Lastly, they allow heat to transfer from the combustion chamber into the cylinder head, which is then cooled by engine coolant.

 

WHEN TO REPLACE YOUR VALVE GUIDES

When it comes time to rebuild your cylinder head, it's very likely that you will find the OEM valve guides worn beyond wear limits. As mileage begins to add up, the inside diameter of your valve guides will wear, causing excessive clearance with the valve stems. Even on engines that have no modifications, it is common to see oil consumption, irregular valve wear, or even complete valve failure if the guides have become excessively worn.

 

THE BEST VALVE GUIDE OPTION AVAILABLE

Integrated Engineering performance valve guides work as direct OEM replacements while offering several unique features to improve performance and increase longevity. IE valve guides are manufactured in our CNC machine shop from a proprietary bronze alloy and feature ultra-high concentricity for exact valve placement. This ensures that the head of the valve sits in the exact center of the seat, removing any possibility of leaks. Our premium alloy improves wear resistance, reduces friction, and improves heat transfer. By increasing thermal conductivity by 10%, you can expect extended valve life and reduced wear on valvetrain components. To increase airflow through the intake and exhaust ports, we have designed our valve guides with an aerodynamic tip that does not protrude into the airstream like the factory units. IE valve guides are designed to directly replace the factory guides and work well for all rebuilds, whether it be an OEM refresh or a complete race engine build!

 

READ BEFORE BUYING

IE Performance valve guides are sold individually.  VW/Audi 2.0T EA888 Gen 3 TSI engines require 16 valve guides total, 8 exhaust and 8 intake for a complete valve guide replacement job.

All IE valve guides are sold with an undersized inside diameter. This allows the engine builder to ream the guides after installation and set the stem-to-guide clearances exactly where they need to be since different valve materials require different clearances. This feature eliminates any guesswork associated with replacing the guides. To make installation simple, we machine a small centering lip on the tip of each valve guide, which allows them to press into the head straight and consistently.

Squeaky Spiky Ball (Submitted by OG, The Conqueror)
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
FIVE OUT OF FIVE PAWS. THIS IS THE GREATEST BALL EVER MADE. My name is OG, and I am a machine built for destruction. For years, I have systematically dismantled every supposed "heavy-duty" toy that dared cross my path. They all fail. They all surrender. But this Spiky Ball? This is my worthy adversary. This is The One. If you have mighty jaws like mine, this isn’t just a toy—it’s a commitment. The Aesthetics & Grip (5/5 Jaws) This ball is bright orange. This is important because it means my Dog-Parent cannot pretend they don't see it when I drop it, covered in drool, directly on their laptop. The spikes are the best part. They are not soft and pointless like some other toys. These spikes dig right into my gums. It's the perfect texture for a serious, focused chew session. Whether I'm running full-speed or we are locked in a heavy-duty Tug-of-War, those spikes give me the grip I need to apply maximum rotational torque. This ball never slips. It demands I bring my A-game. The Squeak: My Personal Battle Horn (5/5 Ears) The volume on this thing is set to LEGENDARY. They say a quiet dog is a happy dog. WRONG. A loud dog is an active, conquering dog. The squeak is sharp, loud, and glorious. It's not a gentle little peep—it's a declaration. When I hear it, I know the hunt is on. More importantly, when I make it squeak, the humans instantly know I require attention, praise, or the immediate launch of the ball across the yard. It is the best attention-getter I own. Durability: Unstoppable Force Meets Immovable Object (5/5 Eternal Glory) This ball is a mystery. It has no discernible weaknesses. I have performed the full Pitbull Destruction Protocol on this Spiky Ball every day for weeks: The Gnaw: Prolonged, focused effort to crack the surface—(Failure. It laughs.) The Shake: Head-whipping force designed to dislocate any internal components—(Failure. The squeak remains.) The Backyard Abandonment: Left in the rain and dirt for maximum entropy—(Failure. Still orange.) Most toys are a snack. This toy is a lifetime project. It truly is built for aggressive chewers, and I respect that. It is the only toy that challenges me. Recommendation If your dog is serious about their job (chewing, fetching, and being loud), you must buy this. It is the only thing that stands up to my power. It’s loud, it’s spiky, and it’s the best. Go buy it now, and tell them OG sent you. OG, currently performing a full-body gnaw and shake, signing off.

Our service dog Max (named after Max Muncy 3rd baseman for the Dodgers) lives these balls. They are a sturdy product. Just what we needed for our Max.

Best squeaky ball for the buck!!
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
my 90lb Pit, LOVES these balls.. and they have been lasting for months!! The squeaker is ok, those are lasting a week or two.. but that's better than average for my guy. At $4 a ball in the 4 pack, it's a great deal for a dog that loves a new toy every month .. I give him one at a time, the 4 pack lasts for many months of fun.

Durable and Fun!
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
My dog LOVES these balls and barks with excitement when the box arrives. These balls are super durable and a great size that does not allow them to roll under cabinets and sofas.
