About this part

Product Details

These COMP Cams Super Bead Locks are designed for LS1/LS6 engines and feature a 10-degree locking angle with an 8mm stem size. The key design element here is the 'bead lock' feature, which creates a more secure interface between the lock and the retainer compared to standard valve locks. While the tang on a valve lock primarily serves to position components, the true holding power comes from the taper of the retainer creating a collet effect. These bead locks enhance that effect, providing a stronger grip, especially important when dealing with higher valve spring loads found in performance builds.

This set includes 100 pieces, making it suitable for multi-cylinder engines like the GM LS family. The 10-degree angle is specific to certain retainer designs, so it's important to ensure compatibility with your existing or chosen retainers. Proper installation involves a small gap between the two halves of the lock when seated on the valve stem; if they fit flush, they are too large, and if they leave a gap around the stem's O.D., they are too small. These locks are a well-built option for those rebuilding or upgrading their LS engine's valvetrain.
