The 1.455 OD Spring Locators .570in from COMP CAMS are precision valve spring locators engineered for high-performance engine builds and competition applications. Designed for mechanics, engine builders, and performance enthusiasts, these locators maintain proper valve spring concentricity and seating geometry—critical factors for reliability under extreme RPM and boost conditions. A set of 16 units provides coverage for multi-cylinder engine platforms where consistent spring positioning directly impacts combustion efficiency and valve train longevity.
Manufactured from steel with a 0.060 inch thickness, the 1.455 OD Spring Locators .570in feature an outside diameter of 1.455 inches and inside diameter of 0.570 inches, accommodating spring assemblies with a 1.335 inch spring OD. The locator design prevents spring binding and misalignment during valve actuation cycles, reducing stress concentration and extending component service life. Steel construction provides the durability required for both naturally aspirated and forced-induction powerplants, while the specified tolerances ensure repeatable installation across multiple cylinders.
These locators are essential for engine builders preparing small-block and mid-sized displacement platforms where OEM or aftermarket cylinder heads demand precision spring seating. Whether assembling street performance, road-racing, or drag-racing engines, proper spring locator selection prevents premature valve fatigue and maintains consistent valve lift across all RPM ranges. The 16-piece set supports complete engine builds or serves as replacement inventory for shops and builders maintaining multiple projects simultaneously. Installation requires basic engine assembly knowledge and standard valve spring tools.
