I wonder if motor will ever get done

The new springs and retainers came yesterday so I took them to engine shop last night. Springs will work but retains only allow a 1.75 height and he wants 1.8. So I. All today and am told I will have to use a different keeper that will allow retainer to sit .050 higher because that is their tallest retainer. So now I'm waiting for the keepers to arrive beginning of next week.
