Billman, in regards to your valve retainer swap you mentioned that you swap intake side only retainers and not the exhaust side, is there any harm in swapping the ap1 exhaust retainers for ap2 exhaust retainers? I mean you might as well since your already working in the head right? Sorry to get off topic.

He had answered in another post that the AP2 retainers on the exhaust would be good for a lower RPM limit, and not to do them (heavier valvetrain I think...big valves). Also, he had mentioned that there has been no documented case of AP1 exhaust retainers failing.

If you're working on the bolts, you're in the block, not the head
