Raceware is the unmatched leader in engine fastener design and manufacturing for Porsche engines. We use these kits in every competition build that goes through our engine shop, as well as the majority of street engine builds depending on customer preference. Raceware as a fastener company specializes in German marques, and is in our opinion, the only brand to use on a Porsche car.
Using the best aerospace quality materials, Raceware head studs are designed, tested and independently verified and rated to 205,000psi tensile strength. Additionally they allow for proper thermal expansion, an important consideration on an engine which could see operating temperatures from below zero to 300°+ fahrenheit depending on conditions. Raceware-equipped engines see better case / cylinder / head sealing without leaks, and without relying on excessive nut tightening torque and clamping force. Not only a more reliable solution, but one which does not risk damage from head / cylinder / case distortion from those excessive forces.
Main bearing stud kits prevent power robbing crankshaft flexing encountered in high-performance applications.
Using the best aerospace quality materials, Raceware connecting rod bolts are rated to 220,000 PSI tensile strength so are significantly stronger than stock units, and unlike the factory stretch bolts, are reusable. An absolute must for racing and high-rev / high power applications and high performance driving.
Simply put: if you are rebuilding your Porsche's engine use Raceware fasteners.
