Default New Valve Keepers?


Is it standard to replace the keepers with new stock pieces when changing the valves in a head?

I would appreciate some thoughts on this....

thanks,

LSR

Show me what a worn one looks like.

The only time I've replaced keepers is when it's a B16 head w/ aluminum retainers.
