I've searched and haven't found much on this. Hoping I can get some good feedback. Putting together my B16a head with buddyclub spec 3+ cams, P1 springs and cam gears. Still need valves, seals, guides, and retainers.

My questions are:

1) What retainers SNAP FIT onto buddyclub dual valve springs?
2) Are there more than one brand that do?
3) What are they?

Hoping to be able to rev to 9k rpms, for insurance against a miss shift. Setup probably won't make power past 8200 rpms.

I can search were to buy and prices. I read that KMS titanium retainers snap fit to the buddyclub springs, but not sure of the quality. I also read that KMS is basically SUPERTECH. Can anyone confirm any of this?

If I have to, I'll get the buddyclub P1 retainers. Just don't wanna spend that much. Working with a budget and still need valves, guides and seals. Thanks in advance.

 

Anyone using buddyclub B series dual springs with other brand retainers? Not worried about materials, i'll sort that out once I have an idea of what fits right...

 

Does anyone have experience using OEM, ITR/CTR, supertech, KMS, crower, or any other retainers, with the B16 P1 dual valve springs? Advice, opinions, experiences, any info is helpful...
