I don't think I like that. I would rather have the new pivots, should improve oil pressure.

Yeah it's not clear if you're getting someone else's stuff straight up or if they're reconditioned somehow? That's a great question actually

I think it just made more sense in my head you would send them pivots because of that.

I get confused easily

i understood that the pivots are specially modified by them, which was the reasoning for the core and the replacement pivots.

but if the update pivots have a deeper divot and better oiling, i'd rather get the newer pivots than someone's old modded shallow pivots, because the main issue that even needs these retainers is the shallow divot pivots.

According to another video posted by Denstoj the pivots don't supply oil to the rockers. The oil is supplied via a small hole next to the pivot. Here's a link to the oiling demostration video:

Hey 86'ers! Cool that you found the oiling pivot video that we made @2003wrx64. It hope it helps explain that oil does not come through the hole in the pivots.

Did you have any other questions or videos that would help explain how the rocker system works?

We hope no one has to go through the pain of another blown motor due to a rocker failure.

Info please, thanks!

Great! We've developed our bespoke drop-in replacement pivots with an engine performance machine shop with 25 years+ of experience manufacturing valve-train gear.

They will out-perform the stock pivots. As mentioned, with no machining required.

There will be no price increase compared to our previous "Brand-new machined" kits.

If you would like to be the first to know when we have stock, please email dennis@denstoj.com.au with "Drop-in FA20 Rockers" as the subject and mention you're from the FT86Club forums.

Denstoj · 04-28-2021, 06:09 AM

Thanks for the emails, will keep you posted on stock

jrhudson · 05-12-2021, 03:55 AM

Hmm. Hoping for these to come into stock soon. Gonna get all the goods to get my engine built finally started.
