Agostino stage 2 heads and cam on a 99 z28.

Do 918s fit?

Does anything else fit?

918's will fit, you need stock retainers

Maybe I am wrong but I was told the Agostino heads I have are an earlier version that won't tke the 918s?

The valve stem diameter is wrong.

The valve stem diameter is wrong.

You need to check with ARE on this. If they changed the valve stem diameter then there is no retainer that will work with the 918s. In that case you'll need to stay with the 941s or something like the Isky 295Ds.
