The matching retainers for Comp 26918-16 beeehive springs are : Steel 774 or titanium 772.
Valve locks are 7 degree 623-16

I have stock retainers i was told i wouldnt need to upgrade my retainers, am i gonna have to?

**Fbomb** · February 28th, 2010, 11:25 AM

I'd say it depends on the cam and what you're going to spin it up to. I'll be running Ti retainers and I'm only going to spin to 6300 maybe 6400.

**1BADAIR** · February 28th, 2010, 11:33 AM

stock retainers should be fine. you need stock locks though.
7 degree are alot different
