Need quick answer! 918 springs...

OK got the 918 springs and titanium retainers. What locks do I need? Also, I have heard mixed answers on the spring seats. Some say I need new ones and others say that stock will work fine. Help???

I have them on the stock seats and they work fine. I can't remember the part number for the locks.

Re: Need quick answer! 918 springs...

If you have the 794-16 titanium retainers you can use the
611-16 locks (standard), or the 614-16 locks (+.050). It
just depends on the installed height you are looking for.

The seats are 4705-16 and are .062" thick if you don't want
to use the stockers. Stock seats are about .040" thick.

You should check your installed height with your combination
to make sure things are OK.

Well I am using stock valves, so should I go with the 614-16?

Most likely they will get you to the correct installed height.
