Jesel Certified Performance Rebuilds

Now that the race season is over, it’s a great time to freshen up your engine.

Now that the race season is over, it's a great time to freshen up your engine. Many shops are calling on their race customers to get a jump on that rebuild work before things get crazy again quickly in early 2023. One rebuild service folks with Jesel components might want to consider is taking advantage of Jesel's CPR department to inspect, update and rebuild your Jesel rockers, lifters and followers.

Rebuilding Jesel engine components can add years of life to your system, lower your initial investment cost and give you the confidence you need for your next season of championship winning racing.

Jesel products are serious investments for any racer and maintaining that investment could be the difference between winning a championship and losing it. Jesel's CPR department is a state-of-the-art Certified Performance Rebuild department where their component experts inspect, update and rebuild your Jesel rockers, lifters and followers to precise tolerances.

Rebuilding your rockers can add years of life to your system, and lower the initial investment cost. Once the season is over, you should take the opportunity to have Jesel's experienced employees rebuild your rockers to exact Jesel specs and clearances. Jesel fully disassembles, cleans and thoroughly inspects all components for wear before rebuilding them. All shaft bearings, retaining clips and alignment spacers are replaced and all steel components such as shafts, adjusters and rollers are replaced as needed. Once the rebuild is complete, a rebuild date will be laser etched into the rocker body for your records.

Roller lifters are one of the most severely abused components in an engine assembly and a yearly inspection should always be considered mandatory. Following a thorough inspection process by one of Jesel's rebuild specialists, your lifter will be disassembled and cleaned. The lifter bodies will be inspected for wear and fatigue and will be reassembled with all new components including the roller, needle bearings, axle, and when applicable, the center aluminum piston. Again, a rebuild date will be laser etched into the lifter body for your records.

When it's refresh time, it's important not to neglect your overhead cam followers. Upon arrival, your followers will be fully disassembled and the bodies will be inspected for cracking and fatigue. They will be thoroughly cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner and reassembled with new valve tip and cam lobe rollers, including new needle bearings and roller axles. The steel bodies are the only parts to be reused. A rebuild date will be laser etched into the follower for your rebuild records.

So how do you go about sending in parts for service? Just ship your package to the address below and be sure to include a note stating what you need done, along with your contact information. Once your package is received, a Jesel rep will call you to discuss the rebuild and approximate cost. About a week later, they’ll be on their way back, rebuilt, certified and ready to race.
