Unlock the full potential of your S54’s valvetrain with our High Performance Cam Followers/Rocker Arms, built for precision, durability, and reliability in high-revving performance engines.

Crafted from forged chromoly steel and finished with a diamond-like carbon coating, these cam followers are engineered to deliver exceptional strength, reduced friction, and outstanding wear resistance, ideal for demanding street or track use. Each unit is precision-ground for consistent clearances and smooth, stable valvetrain motion at all RPMs. Despite heavy-duty construction, our design retains the same weight as the factory rocker arm, preserving OE valvetrain geometry and balance while offering superior longevity and performance.

Rocker arms wear in conjunction with the camshafts, meaning the two must be replaced simultaneously. Aftermarket and performance camshaft options (Schrick, CAT-Cams, etc.) are typically ground from softer blanks and, as a result, cannot be used with factory rocker arms. We tested our performance cam followers with aftermarket camshafts to validate compatibility, ensuring smooth, reliable, and safe operation under demanding conditions.

Features:

Forged chromoly construction for maximum strength and durability Diamond-like carbon-coated surface reduces friction, extends service life, and permits compatibility with aftermarket and performance camshaft options Precision-ground tolerances ensure consistent and quiet operation OEM weight match maintains valvetrain balance and reliability Superior wear resistance for performance and endurance applications NOTE: Rocker arms are wear items and must be replaced alongside a new set of camshafts, regardless of profile or manufacturer. Installing a new set of rocker arms onto a used set of camshafts is NOT recommended.

Kit Contents:

24 DLC-Coated Rocker Arms (required to complete both camshafts) Product Development: Our Turner Performance Rocker Arms are the result of advanced engineering, testing, and quality assurance by Turner’s Research & Development team. Every stage of development employs FARO laser scanning, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, and in-house rapid prototyping for precise fitment and design validation. Performance and durability are proven through Mustang AWD 500 SE dyno testing and Superflow SF-750 Flowbench analysis, ensuring each component meets Turner’s uncompromising standards for performance and quality.

If there is a large amount of oil on the sides of the engine or if you can smell burning oil, chances are it's a bad valve cover gasket. The gasket fails and allows oil to seep down onto the side of the engine and other parts causing a mess and reducing the amount of oil in your engine. This replacement gasket from Elring is perfect to prevent any further oil leaks.

Includes everything needed to re-seal your engine's head.

Elring is one of the biggest OEM names in the manufacturing of high quality gaskets that are available for very affordable prices. Elring has supplied many automotive names for years with the gaskets that seal your car's components from day 1 so you can rest assured that these components will last for a long time to come!

VAC's S65 bearings are embraced by BMW engine builders world wide. Popular for both forced induction and N/A builds, their coated bearings are "friction resistant" making thermal breakdowns that can occur due to lack of lubrication a much less common occurrence. Helping to prevent premature engine failures on street cars, and spun bearings under stress at the track when things are most critical.

Despite the fact that BMW engineers some of the worlds most revered engines, during number crunching something always has to be a compromise. One item that is always found to be a weak point- the OEM hardware. It is definitely sub-par for real performance use under high stress such as modded engines and track use. We use these fasteners on all of VAC's in-house head builds. Whenever the head is coming off, your switching to forced induction, or if you are simply prepping to drive your car hard; we highly recommend switching to far superior race-grade hardware. These Head Stud Kits greatly improve reliability; helping to eliminate movement of the of the cylinder head and intern, gasket failure caused by inferior OEM head-bolt stretch. This is the #1 cause of premature head gasket failure, especially on boosted or high output engines. Though more expensive than OEM, converting to one of VAC's head studs kits will not only give added strength and reliability when its needed most, but provides the most accurate torque readings because studs don’t “twist” into the block; all clamping forces are on one axis, and there is less force exerted on the normally stressed threads of the block. This increases block and hardware life and typically makes the head easier to properly install to the block, a blessing if your head may have to be removed more than once. Especially in the time crunch of racing, when engines are dissembled frequently, studs make removing and installing the cylinder head on to the block a much easier task. By allowing the studs to act as a guide on to the head, your head slides on and off and also ensures proper alignment of the head and gasket for the same reason. It is similar to converting your wheel-bolts to wheel-studs.

Often called main bearings, crankshaft bearing shells sit between the rotating assembly and the engine block. They allow the crankshaft to rotate freely, but are prone to wear from deterioration and lack of lubrication.

This complete set consists of nine bearings, enough to fill each journal.

If you're overhauling your M10, choose Hella crankshaft-bearing shells for a lasting solution.
