I have had to have the head on my 51 gmc 270 rebuilt due to a valve failure. I am missing one of the parts to finish up putting it back together though. I am not sure what to call this part, either its the oil shield that sits on top of the valve spring or its called a valve spring retainer. I am not sure but both of these parts look identical to me. Either way, I am not sure where to find one of these little parts. The shop that rebuilt the head said he would have to have one of mine in hand to see if he had anymore laying around, but I've already got them all back on the engine. My contact at Oreilys couldn't come thru. Anybody know where I could pick one up ?
Thanks, Troy
