| Because today's racing engines run at higher RPM levels with harsh cam profiles, the tip of the valve stem is subjected to a tremendous amount of pounding. These engines always run just on the brink of valve float - one of the most severe conditions that exists. The best solution to this problem is COMP Cams® Valve Lash Caps and Locks. |

 | COMP Cams® Valve Spring Accessories | Locators | |
|
- Protects the head and shim while properly locating and holding the springs in place
- New I.D. Locator is engineered with the locating shoulder on the inside
- A wide range of sizes are available to locate from either the inside or outside diameter
- Designed to handle the extreme spring pressures and high RPM in racing engines
|
| COMP Cams® offers Valve Spring Locators as an effective solution to the problem of standard shims not holding up to the extreme spring pressures and high RPM of today’s race engines. These Valve Spring Locators provide a thin, hardened steel alloy seat that will not only protect the head and shim, but also locate and hold the spring in place. Previously, this part has been available only in a cup form with the retaining portion being on the outside of the part. This required that the head be machined a great deal to accept this cup so COMP® now offers an I.D. locator with the locating shoulder on the inside, as well as the spring cup. Many sizes are available to locate from the inside or outside diameter. |
 | COMP Cams® Valve Spring Accessories | Shims | |
|
- Heat treated to stand up to radical cam lobes
- Made from the highest quality shim stock
- Available in three different thicknesses to help achieve exact proper valve spring height
- Kits contain 16 pieces of each thickness
|
| COMP Cams® Valve Spring Shims are used to equalize the installed height of valve springs. Made from the highest quality shim stock, these shims are heat treated to stand up to even the most radical cam lobes. Valve Spring Shims are available in a wide range of diameters and three different thicknesses (.015", .030" and .060") to help achieve proper valve spring height in any application. Valve Spring Shim Kits are also available with 16 pieces of each thickness listed. |

 | COMP Cams® Valve Spring Accessories | Spacers | |
|
- Locates springs with an outside step to prevent springs from "walking" on the head
- Eliminates the need to stack shims
- Durable construction for long lasting use
|
| Late model Big Block Chevrolet engines are originally equipped with exhaust valve rotators. Until now, the only way to make up for the rotator was to stack .300" of shims under the spring. This was sloppy but also did not fit as well as these seat spacers. These will locate the spring with an outside step so the spring cannot "walk" around on the head. |
