Melling V1744 is a standard replacement engine exhaust valve built for stock applications that need precise valve train dimensions and durable heat resistance. It is a steel valve with a coated finish, and the fitment data covers Ford Ranger, Mazda B2500, and Mazda B2300 applications.

Key Features

• Steel construction for exhaust valve durability under heat and load.
• Coated finish for added surface protection.
