crane duals Where can i get crane dual valve springs from for my C1 ? and can i use stock retainers or do i need other ones? any suggestions on other springs is greatly appreciated.. i was also looking at the MANLEY's from scoggin dickey ther're only $65 bucks i think would those be ok?
you can get the cranes at thunder racing. you'll need new retainers. i believe they have there whole package deal for 500 or so.
what are the specs of your C1 cam. im running the manley singles with tit. retainers from SDPC and i havent had any proplems. cant beat the price either.

just a little confusion ??? when people say heat cycles are they talking just on break in or should i never put my foot in it till it reaches a good temp say 175, 180 or so and at the track i like to usually run around 145 or so is that bad?

about heat cycling, its mostly just an initial break in period. dont running them up to 6k untill they been heat cycled a few times. high rpms and cold springs = not good.
once the springs are broken then they should be fine and normal precautions should just be taken, like not beating on the engine until normal operating temperature is reached.

that goes with any car, wait until normal operating temp. to take it up to the high revs. which im sure you do that now anyway.
and with your cam specs, yes i would get the manleys for a single spring.
