Description
Overview:
The Valve Spring Retaining Plate for the JAP 4/44 engine is a genuine JAP component engineered to secure the valve spring and keep the valvetrain operating correctly. Manufactured from durable steel, it sits in the valve assembly to hold the spring firmly in position, helping to maintain correct valve timing and reduce wear.
