Default Retainer Part # ?

I have a set of PAC 1518 behive springs and needed the Comp Cams Ti retainer and lock part #'s.
Thanks!

I have the same springs in a box, and would like to know the specs of standard retainers and locks. Any one got any insight on this??

Steel Retainers From Comp #774-16

On either retainer part number, stock locks can be used without issue, or you can use Comp #623-16.

Of course, any of these part can be purchased at competitive pricing from Texas Speed & Performance

Thanks guys. I have a set of LS3 heads but theyve got non beehive springs, cant remember the brand, on them. Ive got a set of brand new 1518s in a box and they are beehive, so I need to use different retainers. But if you guys say my stock ones from my LQ4 will work?? Thats encouraging. Thanks.

I'm assuming the answer to my question is no but.. Can you use Patriot retainers and locks with the PAC 1518 springs?
