Default LS6 Retainers = LS1 Retainers

Are the retainers the same on both engines?

Hi,
I thought the Comp Cams 772 retainer was steel not titanium?
Thanks,

You must have been misinformed. I have already installed the retainers, but I took a picture of the box just for you. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

The press release was kind of misleading.
http://www.compcams.com/information/...1retainers.PDF

I do have one picture of the stock retainer, off my '02 LS6 heads (same as the LS1 retainer), and the CC 772 TI retainers.



I got mine 772's through Thunder Racing: 63-772-16 Comp Cams 772-16 Titanium Retainers for use with 26915 or 26918 Conical Valvesprings $165.99
