WHY TO BUY?
The internal combustion engine is a complex machine. If even the tiniest part fails, the entire unit will stop working properly. One of the small yet crucial groups of parts inside your motor is valve retainers. These little items are used to keep the valve springs connected to the valves, so that the entire engine can run in harmony. If your valve retainers are old and worn out, or you are rebuilding the valve train, it is crucial to replace these items with a new set of valve retainers. Here at Andy's Auto Sport we have a great selection of valve retainers for you to choose from. We feature retainers from many of the leading brands so whether you want a stock replacement or high-performance set, you can find the perfect valve retainers in our lineup.

DID YOU KNOW?
Valve retainers, also referred to as keepers, are small metal components that serve as the connecting link between your valves and your valves springs. On most vehicles the OEM valve retainers are made up of steel or iron. While this material is fine for a stock application, in the world of racing it pays to be lightweight. Many aftermarket companies offer titanium valve spring keepers that combine strength and reduced weight to ensure maximum performance. Titanium valve retainers can provide increased valve spring life, better high-rpm performance, and improved responsiveness. If you demand the best performance from your motor, step up to a set of titanium valve retainers.
FAQs
Q: How do you install retainers?
A: Retainers require headwork and should be left to the pros. While replacing retainers, valve springs along with camshafts should all be upgraded.

Q: What are retainers? Why buy retainers?
A: Retainers are used with valve springs in order to take the impact of high RPMs. When purchasing camshafts or looking to increase the revs of your motor, a set of valve springs and retainers should be purchased. Retainers are designed for high stress and have a high resistance to vibrational contact and harmonic wear from the motor.
