Hi guys,

I just bought a set of three power valves from a guy. One valve is longer than the other two. Does anyone know which valve is stock for an 01' SRX 700
Should all three valves be exactly the same? ......or doesn't it matter.

post pics! are they rebuilt?(welded and ground)
 
Ill try to post pics tomorrow... don't have access to digital camera yet.

I was told that all three came off a 2000 SRX but 1 valve looks very different than the other two. The valve itself is longer and the tapered end has a much steeper pitch.
 
The one valve sounds like a viper exh valve and they wont interchange. Once you post a pic I can tell you which is which
 
yeah, you probably got ripped off. i have 3 valves here for a 700 srx if you need one. they will be repaired ones, w/a stainless bolt. all srx 700 valves are interchangable from year to year. 600 srx valves are different and the viper valves are also different.
 
NOW who would do that to u anyways?? That is kinda stupid if you ask me.Why would someone ship 3 valves and make one different from the other 2.Either they are ripping you off or just plain mixed one up when he packaged them.Better tell him politely and see what gives.Is the seller on this site.Let us know if things go sour there.#$%&*
 
I agree with blue , i got a friend who purchased a SRX 01 motor from a supposedly reputable aftermarket yamaha parts dealer in London Ontario , and he sent 3 viper valves , long story short Rene screwed up his new motor $2200 bucks he paid for it ? Altough it took a lottttttttttttttttt of pursausion , he come clean for it !!!!!!!!!!! I would take Blue's advice and start off polite .
 
I bought power valves off you harness,and you didn't trick me...lol.My valves were all the same and I thank you for that...lol.If I can get good deals on used parts like from harness racer..I am a happy camper then.If he wants to stay in bussiness,he will certainly be honest and accommodating.;)! ,and from what I hear is a stand up guy.When I find people or a place where I am treated well,then I will continue to do bussiness with them no problemo.No one,and I mean no one wants to get ripped off.Of course there are always a few bad apples in every cart.I have purchased items from all over..the US,Canada and even from Hong Kong and got what I paid for with no surprise's thus far.A deal should be a deal and that's what us buyers expect,no less and no more.Just give us what you promised us and the world will be a better place.My 2 cents worth.;)!
 
Thanks for the info guys. I have a picture of both valves side by side but cannot figure out how to attach it to this thread.

I was able to use 2 of the valves as they are exactly the same as my stock valves. I purchased these off of this list from ViperKing. The 3rd valve is longer and the pitch of the bevel is very different...ViperKing tells me that the different sized valve will work and that it doesn't matter. Is this true?

Of the 3 valves I purchased, I was able to use 2 of them (they match the stock valves from my 01 SRX) The 3rd valve is longer and the beveled edge has a much different pitch than the stock valves. These were purchased off of this list from ViperKing. He is telling me that the difference doesn't matter. Is this true?
 
you will also notice the stop portion of the valve is differnt on the viper valve, they DO NOT interchange as the angle of the valve the length of the valve are differnt between a viper and a srx.
