Choice of Valve springs & Retainers?
So im just wondering what everyones thought is on which selection to choose from?
The ones i found are:
Brian Crower's Kit
Dezods Kit
Supertech's
im not sure if brian crower's comes with seat locators or not, i known dezods says it does but BC's doesnt mention it. BC's are also like 70 bucks cheaper then dezod and supertechs. What do u think.

In supertech I trust. Supertech uses a dual valve springs that have a higher spring rate but because the valves arent taller then stock they dont have a problem with springs snapping as they heat up at highier rpm ranges... I am not a big fan of Brian Crower- used to see wide tolerances with the valve spring rates. The dezod may be pretty good but I have never used... I prefer Supertech also because they are proven to out perform almost anything in the market in its price range with out modification.
so i can run springs and retainers with oem cam then....basically ill im gonna be able to do is rev up to 75ish right?....basically i want a high reving engine without going cams..already got da boost but its like im not lettin the turbo have its full fun by cuttin it off at 63k ya know what i mean?
I prefer ours over each brand. Why?
1) SuperTech offers 2 spring designs. One with a little more than stock spring pressure. The other is a dual wound made for high boost. The problem with the second set is that the seat locator is ok IMO. It is not the best design,
2) BC, too new to really tell about them, but they seem ok
3) Ours are run where run on Dan Gardners car for an entire race season reving to as high as 7800 RPMS. Jeff (318_tc) who made 454whp used ours. Our seat design is far more advanced and of a better construction that SuperTechs IMO.
