so now im pissed...
i called modern to order my retainers a few minuites ago and now the guy on the phone told me that i couldnotorder only the retainers......the only way i can do that is if they happen to have a few extra's sitting around...
so in order to get them i will have to order another set of valve springs along with them for $259.00
but, they are out of stock and wont have any in for about 2 weeks or so......

the guy at modern said that the retainers are not available without the valve springs, so i wont be able to find them anywhere....
so, does anyone know a different place i can order only titanium retainers???
or does anyone know where i can find a used set for preferable less then $200

 

anyone????

 

Ill try spud, but actually, im going back on my word for being on here but... Anyways, arent they standard valve retainers? Do they have to be specific to the neon as long as they are the right diameter? http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...11301_-1_11071

 

i dont know but they do have to be alot stronger then stock....thats why i need them to be titanium

i think overhead valve spring retainersshould be different then regular spring retainers

 

I dunno, why would they? I would go over to the parts store and see if they can bring out some of each, even if they are not titinamium, then you will know. That would really have to suck to buy new springs because of that[&:]

Dont you ever, ever get tired of knowing the answer to anybodys and everybodys question?

 

no he still doesnt

 

Although I appreciate the comments, I don't know all. I have done alot of reading and researching on neons. If I ever needed a engine torn apart and put back together quickly, I would call SPUD [sm=happy046.gif]

 

thats the part im good at.....tearing apart and putting together the neons...

ordered those retainers a few minuites ago
