    Unhappy Valve spring retainer woe's

     



    Valve spring retainer woe's
    Ok here is my problem, I had a freind give me a set of cleveland 2 barrel heads that are very fresh, only had a couple of runs on them. He had chevy valves installed in them and the valve guides cut for a double springs and nylon seals. Now the valve stem or tip is almost level with the valve spring retainer. I'm afraid that the Lunati Rockers I have are going to hit the retainers thus releasing the locks and droping the valve. Now I know a few
    guys that have ground down thier Rockers but I don't want to do this, Can I buy a valve with a longer tip above the locks to fix this problem? Any one else had this problem?
