Default Atkins Rotary.

Anyone have experience with them? I'm in the market for valve seals, and they have OEM ones for very good prices. Wondering if its a legit place to get these. I can get them for roughly 170 shipped from most places, but from Atkins Rotary its only 124 shipped. Also, I'm not crazy, I need 8 each correct? Thanks

Or you can just cruise over to your local O'Reilly's or whatever and get some Fel-Pro's for like 40 bucks. No need to pay three times the cost when Fel-Pro/Mahle etc. are all viton anyways and good to go. Better than stock EPDM.

This is true, I wasn't sure if felpro has had enough people using to know if they last or not. Oem is still king in this category from what I understand. Im only at 65k miles and I'v been told I blow smoke costing downhill, I'v never seen the smoke myself though.
