Hi guys,

1. Anyone use Supertech Viton Valve Seal set before for their B series engine? Is it reliable & this product is from where? Japan?

2. And also heard alot that now all the Valve Seal is made from Thailand even with Honda sticker on it. Can this be use?

3. Can we still find original Valve Seal for B series engine?

As I need to change valve seal due to valve seal failure. Any good recommendation?

Yes, the new honda stuff I also heard all made in thailand, Most US stuff mostly made in China/Taiwan now, but big companies enforce better QC.

Supertech quite a well known brand, so shouldn't have issues.

The honda valve seals from thailand should work, they're not that complex to screw up IMO.

While you're replacing valve seals, check the valves too, this is a good time as any to replace them. You can choose flat valves, which increases comp about 0.5CR, or retain standard.
