Parts Q's (and hopefully A's)

[Comanchejess]

have any of you fellas or ladies bought valve stem keepers from quadratec? I just ordered 24 for $70, but they had no info. did I buy two sets?

will they *actually* fit? (the set I got from Jegs wasn't right for MY valve stems) will they be decent quality, or will I be redoing my head/engine again minutes after I get it built? This is my first solo engine build, so I'm super nervous about every part I order, and I apologize about that.

Links are super helpful, as well as what engine and head being built. Valves used?

turns out the reason the parts I bought from Jegs don't work is because they're for a totally different inline 6 jeep motor, not the 4.0... Jegs doesn't sell valve parts for the 4.0

I usually use Summit for stuff like that, mainly because I live next door to them, but I also don't like Jeg's website. Summit is a lot easier to navigate. It looks like Summit and Quadratec both carry the same valve retainers, Crown isn't usually the best in the world but spring retainers should be fine. Or go down to the pull a part and take them out of any 4.0 for $2.
