M-8 Cylinder
Stud
Pacifica, California based Kibblewhite Precision
Machining (KPMI) has these new M-8 cylinder studs
made from 180,000 psi yield strength, fine grain,
heat treated, aircraft grade alloy steel.
Kibblewhite "rolls" the threads, heat treats and then
centerless grinds the entire body of the stud. Rolling
the threads creates the toughest and strongest
thread possible, and centerless grinding removes
notch sensitivity. The case end thread is designed to
have a slight interference fit to minimize distortion
and maintain good thread contact during torque
procedure.
The final process for all KPMI studs is to encase the
entire stud with premium corrosion resistant black
oxide treatment.

BMC Enters Harley Replacement Filter Market
Italian filter manufacturer BMC is universally known
in motorsport circles in Europe and elsewhere simply
as 'The Red Filter' - its widespread use in Formula 1,
Le Mans, MotoGP and World Superbike among other
leading series has made it almost ubiquitous.
Almost 20 years of experience gained from
successful cooperation with many of the most
46
AMERICAN MOTORCYCLE DEALER - MAY 2019
prestigious teams in motorsports has made BMC a
"global leader in the design and production of high-
performance air filters."
To mark its entry into the Harley-Davidson filters
aftermarket, the company released a limited edition
run of 99 individually numbered titanium mesh filters
with a hand-laminated autoclave cured carbon fiber
custom cover and CNC-machined one-piece
machined alloy backing plate.
Now, the high-volume production-level product for
Harley applications is available at distributors.
Designed as a no-hassle-fit upgrade for the OEM
paper air filter element, it is manufactured with a
metallic mesh which contains multiple cotton layers
of oiled filtration material.
The proven construction allows improved air flow -
sufficient for stock to all-out performance
applications. To further help prevent small impurities
enter the engine, filtration oil is used to create a
'sticky' barrier, which allows air flow but helps retain
small particles of up to 7 microns. All filters are
precision made and continuously checked during
production for the highest obtainable quality. BMC
filters are washable and reusable and also available
for selected S&S Super B&D and E/G applications.
