Lotus-Ford Escort Twin Cam Follower/Sleeve 1962 - 1975
Restore Precision in Your Lotus Twin Cam Build
Worn or loose valve followers can destroy a classic engine build — causing poor valve timing, oil control issues, or worse. If you're restoring a Lotus-Ford Twin Cam, don’t let follower bore wear compromise your setup.
