Product Details

When you're rebuilding an engine and need to handle the increased pressure from performance valve springs, a strong retainer is essential. These steel retainers from COMP Cams are designed to work specifically with their 26120 Beehive valve springs, offering a well-built solution for engines that need to perform.

COMP Cams used advanced 3D CAD and FEA analysis to shape these retainers. This process helped them create a contoured top profile that reduces stress and mass, while also allowing for increased valve lift. They're CNC-machined from high-grade SAE 4140 chromemoly steel to exact tolerances, ensuring a precise fit on the valve stem and compatibility with 1.095" spring diameters. This retainer is a 10-degree type, meaning it locks onto the valve stem at a 10-degree angle.

This part fits a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevrolet trucks and vans from the 80s and 90s, as well as Chrysler models from the early 80s. It's a solid option for anyone looking to upgrade their valve spring setup.
