Vance & Hines

Raceshop M-8 intake and exhaust valves

Vance & Hines has added to its Raceshop components program with these immediately available high-performance valves for Harley-Davidson’s 2017 Milwaukee-Eight engine.




The company says they are first-to-market with a valve upgrade for this model offering, and that they “employ stringent quality control procedures, providing superior aftermarket valves designed to significantly prolong durability and reliability.
“Machined to exacting tolerances, these high-performance valves are available for the 2017 Milwaukee-Eight engine for both intake and exhaust positions, and are drop-in upgrades available in either sets of four or individual units.”
Chrome coated and precision CNC-machined from a stainless one-piece forging for higher strength and durability, they feature a micro-polished 7mm stem for smoother finish and less friction, resulting in improved performance.
The high-grade alloy is designed to withstand high heat and maintain roundness. They have multi- angle back cuts for enhanced flow and Inconel exhaust valves for optimal oxidation and corrosion resistance that are specifically designed for use in high-heat environments.
The stainless steel valves are said to offer approximately .7 grams in weight reduction compared to the OE valves, reducing valvetrain stress and allowing the engine to rev higher, producing more power.
 The four-valve set includes 1.260” and 1.300” Inconel exhaust valves and 1.570” and 1.610” stainless intake valves.
