The Chevrolet S10 Rocker Shaft Spring Kit helps the valvetrain maintain exact control of the valve by stabilizing the rocker arms on their shaft while providing the seat pressure that the springs require to hold each valve shut. Mounted on overhead valve layouts where the cam is in the block, the kit fits with lifters, pushrods, and rocker arms so intake and exhaust valves open and close at exactly the right moment when the cam lobe demands it. The lash never grows, and there is no more pounding that would bend pushrods or snap rockers. In Chevrolet small truck engines, the engine is able to maintain smooth combustion. In the case of the S10 2.2 liter application, this Rocker Shaft Spring Kit also reduces heat-caused spring fatigue, which causes misfire and loss of power. Because valve springs slowly lose their strength due to heat and miles, the Rocker Shaft Spring Kit will restore factory-level seat and open pressures, typically near 70-90 pounds closed and above 200 pounds opened, and prevent valves from floating at high rpm and pistons from being fatally contacted. Earlier versions had applied basic coil springs and simple retainers, but the current Rocker Shaft Spring Kit uses matched springs and better spacers that distribute the load evenly along the shaft to reduce wear on the pivot points, a refinement that is now shared across Chevrolet compact pickups. Every S10 owner who installs this Rocker Shaft Spring Kit gets a quieter, smoother engine ready for more miles.
