What is the part numbers for these: http://store.440source.com/Comp-Cams-Super-Lock-11_32-10deg-Valve-Locks/productinfo/145%2D1002/ Then which ones are these. Should I get titanium ones or is that way overkill. Or just buy the best for when I get the heads ported by muscle motors? http://store.440source.com/Valve-Retainers/products/33/ Just wanting to make a big order from summit with a 10% coupon from a member here. Thanks!!

I'd talk to MM & see what they recommend for a regular steel retainer/other related items needed. There's gotta be other practical items you need or will need or think you need (the story of my life) that you can put on the coupon live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

Matter of fact, the steeper taper of the 7 degree locks holds them in tighter than the 10 degrees. 10 degree locks may be useful if you're running huge springs for a solid roller cam, to avoid the locks actually pulling through the retainer. Here's an old thread: https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Number=5735698 R. Last edited by dogdays; 02/05/15 03:52 PM.
