Valve Spring Help!!
Ok well I am in the process of putting some 1.65 Roller rockers on my TA, I have bought the RRs and the Hardened Pushrods because they are NSA, I have the new valve seals, but I dont know which Valve Springs to get.
I have been searching around and this is what I have found to be reasonably priced.
from Comp Cams
978-16 OD=1.46 ID=.697 Coil Bind Point 1.195 Spring Rate 403 lb/in
or
977-16 OD=1.46 ID=.700 Coil Bind Point 1.195 Spring Rate 441 lb/in
or from Crane Cams its a whole set with springs retainers and locks its priced really nicely
10308-1 coil Bind Point 1.175 Spring Rate 408 lb/in
Which do I get, or does anybody have any other suggestions, and remember I am on a budget and will spend a max of around $250
Thanks for help and advice

I think that's the Crane spring kit that a lot of people use. Good quality springs and a great price since it's a kit.
Personally I'd recommend the Comp 26-918-16 springs because of how much lighter they are and they're a much better spring, but more money.
