M10/M30/M106 Steel HD rocker arm - Parts arrived
Hi everybody,
after some research, I found a decent source in europe for High Strength steel rocker arms.
I'm trying to see if there is any kind of interest in organizing a group purchase from KM cams in Norway?
https://kmcams.com/collections/ventillo ... ocker-arms
They have been discussed plenty of times online, being successfully used even with the highest lift cams in M10 race engines.
The normal price is 399€ for 12 and 299€ for 8, but they are willing to give a good discount if we get a couple people together.
I have time following information so far:
- they come with new hardened Eccentrics and bolts
- they work with almost every cam on the market, the contact patch of the rocker is wider and allows better wear patterns on the cam
- leverage ratio is the same as OEM
- the have a specially heat treated pad (I'm still trying to verify what kind of process)
- no special oil/wear in procedure necessary

UPDATE:
I got the prices from KM cams. They will be around $253 per set, shipped to my place.
So the set can be had for $260 shipped in the US.
Anybody interested?

Re: M10/M30/M106 Steel HD rocker arm - group pricing availab
The surface is gas nitrided.
As it seems that the rocker is not being polished after Heat treat, I'm currently looking into CNC polishing them after I receive them in.
KM cams has confirmed that this would not be necessary, but I do like to be on the safe side.
I will try to place the order in the next couple of days, so they will be here before the end of the year.
I also did weigh the factory ones. They are 73g a piece without hardware.
After the last revision, the KM rockers are 101.6g, according to the 2002FAQ.

Re: M10/M30/M106 Steel HD rocker arm - group pricing availab
so $260 shipped for a set of 8 and $390 for a set of 12?
Re: M10/M30/M106 Steel HD rocker arm - group pricing availab
With The current exchange rate we are at $265 per set of 12 shipped to me.
That means another $10-$15 after that to get it to your place.
