GPI Piston Flycut Tool - LS1 / LS2 Intake Valve - GPI-CATLS1INT
Precision Flycut Tool for LS1 & LS2 Intake Valve Reliefs
The GPI Piston Flycut Tool for LS1/LS2 intake valves enables builders to machine accurate piston valve reliefs without removing pistons from the block. This tool is ideal for LS1 and LS2 engines receiving a high-lift camshaft, upgraded cylinder heads, or any modification requiring additional piston-to-valve clearance.
GPI's flycutting lineup includes tools for LS3 intake, LS3 exhaust, LS7 intake, and Gen V LT1 intake valve sizes - providing precision-machined results across multiple platforms.
In-Block Machining for Faster, Cleaner Engine Work
Removing pistons for valve relief machining is time-consuming and expensive. This flycut tool eliminates the need for teardown by allowing precise cuts directly in the engine block. Reliefs match LS1/LS2 intake valve dimensions exactly, ensuring proper geometry for high-performance builds.
Whether you're running a more aggressive camshaft or tightening up quench and compression, this tool ensures safe piston-to-valve clearance and prevents catastrophic interference.

FAQs
When do LS1/LS2 pistons need flycutting?
Flycutting is needed when running larger cams, increased lift, or altered timing events that reduce piston-to-valve clearance. Creating proper reliefs prevents interference and protects your engine.
Do I have to remove the pistons to use this tool?
No - this tool is designed to cut accurate reliefs with pistons still in the block, saving hours of teardown and reassembly time.
