If you have purchased, or ever do purchase, Race Tech Gold Valves for your Marzocchi Forks, check right away for the parts needed to complete the conversion of the mid-valve to a check plate.
The parts are specified in the procedures but not currently listed on the parts list so the RT guys didn't include them when the kits were packaged.
They include: 2 brass cup washers, 2 springs, 2 plate washers.
You only want to take things like this apart as often as NECESSARY so if you didn't\don't get them in your kit, contact RT right away (It took a long time to get mine).
Also, the valve chart has an error. The high speed compression stacks are correct from cH1 to cH5, but then
.
I looked at the charts for my orange bikes and figured out the RT tech duplicated cH4 & 5 into cH6 & 7. The solution is to cross out the stacks for cH6 & cH7 and renumber the rest of the High Speed compression stacks up to 18 (so old #8 becomes correct #6, old #9 becomes correct #7, and so on).
May save a couple tuners some headaches and give a couple schmoes like me better experiences with our own work.
