Valve Springs

[Mili M]

When buying new valve springs, do you usually get new valve spring retainer keys with it or no? I really hope there is a way of buying new ones cuz I lost two of mine and a third one broke in half...

Dammit wrong section, someone move this please!

I need the small pieces that lock the valve in place (valve spring retainer keys), not the flat circular ones....know what I am talking about?

I am not too familiar with these locks, what do the different degree levels mean?

Time to stop by for a little free education. If they are stock locks we probably have a few extra you can have

Depending on the size of your cam, if you haven't already bought the springs consider something complete like the spring kit from TFS...
