What's the spring diameter? I have some but mine are for 1.47-1.55 diameter springs. I'm thinking the 947's are a 1.625" spring.

I don't have them here to measure. I'm headed up that way soon, or if Charlie reads this, maybe he could measure them for you. I am pretty sure they would be what your looking for. They are Comp retainers for triples.

Here is what he needs...........
1.500" total dia.
1.180" 1st step
.870" 2nd step
.635" 3rd step
It could matter if the retainer was +.050" or not considering that the spring is rated at 2.00" installed ht.

Lem,
Is the moly retainer that Harold needs the same as what comes w/TFS A heads when new? If so I have a set for him.

Harold,since your drawing (OLD AGE PENSION)check. I could let you have them at a reduced price of FREE. Razz

Curt,

No sir, there is nothing here at my place. I turned everything over to Jet Boat Bob, when I gave him the heads a long time ago. The date on the final flow sheet is 8-6-09, so it was back then.

OK, thanks Charlie. I'll take a look when I make it up there.

Still waiting Harold. I know with certainty that I have two sets for doubles. :/
