BMW N55 Lifter Shim Set by Ferrea

Ferrea Lifter Shim Set for BMW N55 Engines

The Ferrea Racing Lifter Shim Set is specifically engineered to enhance the valvetrain stability of BMW N55 engines, ensuring smooth performance under high RPMs and extreme conditions. These precision shims install beneath the stock hydraulic lifters to reduce lifter travel, preventing valve float and improving throttle response. Whether you’re running high-boost setups or preparing for competitive motorsport, this lifter shim set provides essential reinforcement to keep your engine performing at its peak.

Prevent Valve Float and Maintain Engine Health

Valve float—when valves stay open longer than intended—can lead to power loss and engine damage. Ferrea’s lifter shims restore proper clearance, ensuring precise valve operation and protecting the engine under heavy loads. With these shims in place, your N55 engine will operate efficiently, even during aggressive driving and high-stress situations.

Precision for Boosted N55 Builds

The turbocharged N55 engine demands accurate valvetrain control for optimal performance. Ferrea’s lifter shims eliminate lifter noise, prevent erratic valve movement, and enhance power delivery under boost. Whether your build features custom camshafts or is tuned for high RPMs, these shims provide the precision required to maintain consistency in track-focused and high-performance street builds.

The Ferrea Racing Lifter Shim Set is built for durability and performance, making it the perfect upgrade for drag racing, time attack, or street enthusiasts looking to maximize the reliability of their N55 engine. Trust Ferrea’s engineering to keep your N55 stable, responsive, and ready for any challenge.
