Part# for Valve Spring Retainers

[booyah11]

Going to replace the valve springs and I like having extras of everything when starting a job to avoid parts store trips and other delays. Things that I need numbers / sizes for:

• Valve Cover Bolts (size, length, pitch)
• Valve Spring Retainers

Got everything else, but if there is something silly or specific that I might have missed please let me know. Thanks.

I'm assuming you mean valve spring keepers. Those can be ordered from any parts store. Pay a little extra for the hardened keepers if you get the option.

I've got a set of SS valve cover bolts if you're interested...

Thanks for the heads up on the SS bolts, you have PM sir.

Also, I pulled up the valve keepers on Advanced Auto and they had several options with different part numbers. Would like to make sure I get the right ones. Thanks.
