2.3L springs on a 2.4L head - Clarification Needed
Thursday, December 27, 2007 4:47 PM
Well, I have talked to countless people now and no one seems to know or remember how to get 2.3L springs to work on a 2.4L head. So far I know I need the 2.3L springs, fairly sure I need 2.3L retainers and 2.4L keepers/locks. What about seats/rotators? I have heard that rotators are used on the intake side and seats are used on the exhaust side. Yet when I look up part numbers, I can only find a number for a rotator, not a seat. Can a 2.4L rotator/seat be used, or do I need the 2.3L ones? Someone help!!

LOL Luke should of just gave me a call Iam running them there a direct swap all you need to swap them is 2.3 springs and 2.3 retainers. You use the 2.4 rotors as they where on the stock setup You will also use the 2.4 keepers like you said before.

If you just go to NAPA tell them you need valve spring retainers for a 92-94 Beretta achieva grandam with a 2.3 they will be the right ones i don't remember the part #.

Sorry for the crappy explanation just give me a call and ill explain.

Just to clarify, in order to use the better 2.3 springs all you need is the 2.3 springs and retainers? All the rest is stock 2.4 stuff?
