Now thats total MTI should have sent those springs back. They definitely knew about the spring failures and that comp would replace all new stock with the blue stripes. Shoot my local backyard performance shop even knew about it, and they're not LS1 friendly.

You got it PredatorZ. Tech is going to post my pix soon with the piston ding. The color of the metal is even more bronze on the new blue stripes.

Thanks, Ram
