2eighTZ4me Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I ordered a set of Schneider valve springs for the L series and my machinist pointed out that they are larger diameter than the stock springs (both inner and outer) - and stated that I needed larger retainers, as there would be too much 'walk' trying to use the stock Nissan retainers. Has anyone measured to see if they are a larger diameter spring? He says they lay on the seat OK, but the retainers are too small. Do I need to order Schneider's retainers as well? Or did I order the wrong valve springs from them? The site said they were for an L series head....thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madkaw Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Well as luck would have it my head is in the shop so I can't measure anything now, but I can find out for you in a day or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2eighTZ4me Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Disregard this post. Delete if possible. I called Jerry at Schneider and he stated that they have larger retainers that need to be bought with the springs. Sorry for the spam.
