Magnums are meant for higher rate springs I believe.

There is another problem with the comp r is that you need adjustable rockers or a lot of patience.

So if I read this right, Pro-Mag's and "R's" are the same thing. Correct?

Say your originals had 62K on them. If you were pulling the heads for a swap, what would you do then? I don't have any reason to believe that one is going bad or anything...I just figured with the heads off and that many miles, I'd replace them.

Does that change your mind, or would you just leave them be? New for new, the cost of the "R's" is waaay less than stock ones (as you already know).
