Default Brian Crower steel retainers

Hello guys,

I check the valve clerance of my 2001 AP1 today and see that i have broken retainers on intake and exhaust side. Is it possible to put Brian Crower steel retainers on oem valve springs? because i know that i can put Ap2 on intake valves but i dont really want to put AP1 on exhaust.

Thanks!

I don't believe you can use the BC retainers with stock valves. They are used with their dual valve springs.
