Default Missing part of valve assy

I hope there is someone out there who has a spare....I have searched all over windsor looking in junk boxes of engine rebuilders with no luck....don't really want to order a complete set if I don't have to. The 8ba marine engine has a different design from the ones in the earlier block...I am trying keep it as standard as possible...please excuse my diagram....

cheers

Mike.....I will buy or trade if you have one.

It should be easy to pick up one of those. I think all the ford v8s with adjustable valve gear use the same keepers.

Mike, I had to replace all mine on my first flathead. A quick nip accross the border to Detroit should sove your troubles. Go see the fellows at Motor City Flathead. If anyone knows flatheads it these guys...

ps, check your PMs
