Is any body using the new style Rev 1116 springs. If so do you think they are better than old type. Have you heard of anybody breaking them?

 

any opinions

 

I have the old ones with no problems on .600 lift, and we are going to use the new ones on another engine we are building in a couple weeks. I think install error accounts for a lot of spring breakage.

 

I had the 1116's when I first put my cam in. I broke one in like 2 thousand miles, then broke another and when I replaced them all there was another one bent.
I am running Isky springs right now, but haven't gotten on my car since install. I am still waiting to put my clutch in.

 

5k on the old ones here on .592 lift. I used the +.030 retainers to adjust the install heights. New ones are good to .630 one vendor said. Don't know what the new coil bind is at now.
