What type of valve springs are these retainers designed for?

These retainers are specifically designed for beehive style valve springs that have a 1.095 inch diameter and a 10-degree lock angle. They are engineered to handle the increased pressures these types of springs can generate.

What material are these retainers made from?

They are constructed from high-grade SAE 4140 chromemoly steel. This is a strong and durable material chosen for its ability to withstand the stresses within the engine's valvetrain.

Are these retainers sold individually or as a set?

This product is sold as a set of 12 retainers. This quantity is typically what is needed for a standard V8 engine with two valves per cylinder.

Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for performance valvetrain components, and these steel retainers are a solid option when you're upgrading your engine's valve springs. When you install valve springs with larger diameters, they develop higher pressures. These retainers are designed to handle that increased load, ensuring your valvetrain stays stable under demanding conditions.

Engineers used advanced 3D CAD and FEA to design these retainers with a contoured top profile. This design helps reduce stress, allows for increased lift, and cuts down on overall mass. They are CNC-machined to very precise measurements using CAD/Cam software, so you know they'll fit right. They are made from high-grade SAE 4140 chromemoly steel, a strong material that's built to last. These retainers are specifically made for beehive springs with a 1.095" spring diameter and a 10-degree lock angle.

This set of 12 retainers fits a variety of vehicles, including many Chevrolet C1500, S10 Blazer, and Pontiac Grand Prix models from the late 1980s and early 1990s. Always check the full fitment list to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
