do high performance power valves make a difference?

[dbrockman]

I have a 2001 polaris edge 600 and i was wondering if the high performance power valves make any difference....thanks

High performance Power valves as compared to regular power valves? post a link to this one please??? Your sled is on the line of having or not having VES. My 01 800 did not and my 02 800 did. Are you asking about something aftermarket??

If I read your question correctly, you are asking if an engine with power valves is better than one without?

If that is correct, yes an engine with the power valves will perform better.

Here is a link that tells more about them:

Poalrisrider1, I believe the 600 EDGE had the power valves (VES) as shown in this link:

ya it has the power valves.... my dads buddy at work said he had high performance power valves that he would give me....anyone ever heard of these high performance ones or if there is any such thing?

 

[polarisrider1]

never heard of high performance power valves. He may be meaning stainless or Titanium as opposed to the aluminum valves that came out in the beginning.

 

[nytrodude]

Maybe referring to reed valves??

There is no such thing as high performance powervalves.............

There is no such thing as high performance powervalves.............

Next your prolly gonna say there is no Santie Claus!

Don't use the heavy stainless or the titanium valves in the 600 motors.The heavy valves were for the 800s.

i got these so called high performance valves. I am assuming they are what people call the 3 reed v force valves because the name simply describes what they look like. are these valves better? should i put these in my sled or will they even fit?

thanks for the info

I am so lost. Are we talking about reeds or powervalves?

 

[dbrockman]

i have power valves on my sled right now and my dads buddy gave me reed v force valves because he said that those are supposedly better performance wise... is there any truth to this

 

[ttallin]

are talking about titanium power valves????

 

[polarisrider1]

lol?????? I think he is saying his sled has VES and his dads buddy gave him some V Force reed valves.

 

[polarisrider1]

So now we know which side of the motor we are on (intake). Reed Valves.

Have we entered the twilight zone?

Vforce 3 Reeds are just that, reeds. Powervalves are on the other side of the motor. Polaris is the only one who makes powervalves for polaris sleds. Vforce reeds are good for a horsepower or 2, but if you don't know the difference between these 2 things I don't know if you can install them yourself... Sorry...

I am not a Polaris owner. They work well on Yamaha s provided the person you buy the sled from cleans them so the cables don't pull through the ends. Haha.

Polaris powervalves aren't cable operated so there LOL

No they are not. They also are not found on the finest triple ever put in a snowmobile. In fact, the connecting rods in Yamaha's 700 triple are so strong they used left overs and broken shovel handles to build the rear suspension.
