I checked on some springs today. I wanted good ones so I checked with comp cams.The ones I need are $450.Good thing I`m on overtime here.It is a lunati cam and the springs they recommend are only like $100 but they are H-11 tool steel.Those will break on the street. Boy oh Boy does this suck ass.

yeah it does, but look at it this way, at least you didn't drop a valve on a pass and have it go through the motor fubaring everthing

Yeah, you`re right abot. I was also looking at a set of valve covers with spring oilers.Those are only $500.Maybe next year.Along with a programmable digital 7 box and a new nitrous setup.Here I thought this winter I wouldnt have to worry about cars.(money wise)

Mijal, pm or email me with your cam specs and the comp cams spring part number. I have a couple sets of new comp cams springs that might work. And they are the high dollar Hi-Tech springs. I won't charge you $450 though.

450.00 for valve springs is INSANE!!!!!!

Just get the H-11 springs and change them once a year.
