Spring Locators

COMP CAMS Spring Locators (SKU COM4873-16) are precision valve spring locating tools designed for engine builders and mechanics. These locators provide guidance during cylinder head assembly, ensuring that valve springs seat properly on the valve spring seat. They are suitable for both standard small-block and big-block applications, making them versatile for various engine projects.

The design of COMP CAMS spring locators promotes accurate centering of valve springs directly over the spring seat bore. This attention to detail helps maintain proper spring concentricity, which can reduce stress concentrations in the spring coils and ensure uniform load distribution during operation. The compact size (2.85 x 2 x 4.1 inches) and lightweight construction (0.53 lbs) facilitate easy handling during head work.

Engine builders, machine shops, and DIY enthusiasts working on performance builds or rebuilds will find these locators useful for ensuring proper installation of valve springs. By providing a reliable method for spring centering and seating, these tools can help improve the overall quality of engine assembly.
