Default Trick Flow springs

Sorry if this is old news to you guys, but I just ran across these today, and was just looking for thoughts/opinions/experience with these.
Trick Flow springs
p.s. I know the description says max lift is .600, but its listed in the catalog as .650.

That is actually a really great price for retainers and dual springs. You could run some big cams on those springs I would imagine. Don't know of anyone running those bad boys though.

Thanks smart ***! thats exactly what I didnt ask about!
I know about the PRC springs (price & quality) already, its a great kit.
I was just trying to get some info on a new product. I heard about the Trick Flow heads, and figured I'd ask about the springs. Its probably only a matter of time before the sponsors carry both. So with that said,
In no way shape or form was I trying to steer people away from doing business with our sponsors, so if thats what your are implying, you can stop.

The trick flow kit uses the same spring as PP.All of the sponsors here will sell the same kit lower than Trick Flow.

We have been using them for a few months now on our stuff and it is a very nice spring. Very reliable with 0 failures. I do know they buy it from a major valve spring manufacturer who I am fairly sure makes everybody else's too. The quality is as good as we have seen from anybody!

Ok, cool! Thats what I wanted to hear. I guess I'm still surprised to see companies like this just now start selling products for our cars.
thanks

Dude thats great, but I'm not pushing the Trick Flow product, just merely trying to get some info, Which Mike@TEA answered for me. So please stop acting like I'm trying to undercut our sponsors, thanks
