Haans249 is using the Katech combo. He just fired it up and is planning on going to the dyno soon. I just sold another set today. These things are selling like hotcakes!

$256/set for springs (68g)
$256/set for titanium retainers (5.5g)

100hp gain!




Just kidding. The single beehive spring is much lighter and performed better on our Optron valvetrain dynamics test cell. Lighter valvetrain = greater durability.

I just got my PRC spring kit that I will be using on my LS7 heads. I didnt have the money to buy the Katech PSI combo. They look like a hard-to-beat combination.

Yea, I have them in stock. They have been on several engines on the dyno, one of which was our Camaro engine - 8 hours of durability. They have also been on the Optron.
