Awesome, I sure will tomorrow. I just got me some 243 head with yellow springs. Brand new for a AWESOME deal so I had to get them. I have laying around titanium retainers and dual valve springs from REV racing. I have never heard of them but I had them in my garage. Any info on them? Oh and I will only be doing ARP rod bolts rest are going to be stock.
