Do i need anything else? is this the correct part for the ap1-ap2 retainer swap?

thanks guys

 

You need the cotters 14781-PCX-004 (need 16 per cam).

14765-PRB-A01 is the correct part number for the retainers. Although, from what I hear, you only need 8 of the retainers. The intake cam is the one known for breaking retainers.

 

so the link i posted aren't even the correct retainers?!

 

They dont list a part number so it is unclear. But you dont need to buy all 16, just 8 of them. And you need 16 cotters/keepers (2 for each retainer).

 

They do list a part number. It's the correct part number.

 

oh okay. I guess i should just buy 8 retainers off of a honda website? along with 2 cotters for each retainer.
thanks

 

Yeah, I'm almost positive that's correct. But do some more research and check around.

 

ok i will thanks for the help

 

A few local cars just did the swap. You can buy the AP2 kit as a set with a valve cover gasket, keepers and retainers from Hardtop guy. It comes with enough for intake and exhaust side though.

One car found 4 cracked. Another local dropped a valve the week before and blew up his engine.

 

What would I expect to pay to have the retains changes out on my car?
