I have a 58 356 1600 normal engine I've had the heads rebuilt new valves, guides. I bought a set of springs from Stoddard they are the single spring 912 style. my spring retainers are for the 2 spring style that were stock on my 1600. problem is the 912 spring doesn't seat right on the early retainer. will 912 retainers and keepers work with my early valves. or can I use the 912 retainers with my early keepers. what does one do in this situation. there are 2 retainers that I have that someone has ground the seat area on the underside so the 912 spring will seat properly, is this a viable way to do this. it takes very little grinding to make them work.
