Valve Spring Retainers for U 283A

[resleeve]

Hello, new to forum, I am working on U with gas 283a engine, and am looking for valve spring retainers for non rotating assemblies. Searching in web so far have not been able to find anybody selling them. Any help on this is much appreciated. Thank you

Check with your local machine shop, they might have some used ones or a means to order them.

Also look on Ebay, find someone selling parts for a U. Contact the seller, many times they have more than
they have listed.

Have you tried external_link.com?

There was a tread on this site several years ago where someone else was searching for parts for a 283A engine. Several people
suggested sources.

I know nothing about MM engines. It would help if you had a part number, picture, or some sort of better description.

Thanks to all who replied, I was able to get a hold of Welters this morning, retainers are on the way to me. Yes I am working on Minneapolis U with 283A engine. Next problem is the water pump seal/impeller to tackle.
