Toda valve springs
I plan on replacing my valve springs with the Toda valve springs.
Does anybody know if the aforementioned valve spring will fit under a stock sized retainer, or do I need to get a special sized retainer to fit above the valve spring.
Toda's website doesn't clarify this.
Any and all input is greatly appreciated.

It's a statement. The Toda valvesprings fit with the stock retainers.
I appreciate your help!

fits under stock retainers. but when replacing valvesprings, why bother use stock retainers? Get Ti retainers. That's what I have in my head. Toda valvesprings and Ti retainers.
Thanks.

Well I over revved (mechanically), while driving aggressively. So, I know I have damaged my retainers (only a matter of time before I drop a valve). I figured I would replace my retainers with Ti pieces, and while I was at it, upgrade my valve springs as well, since I was going to have the head off the car. I thought they (toda valve springs) were priced nicely at $400.
