    Arrow Conicals and retainers for 8 valves.

    I can put together a package deal of 995 springs and retainers, not sure of cost but a set of springs should be around $130 plus $20 for retainers plus shipping. These are a simple swap, no shimming or keeper changes needed.

    Just post up here.

    Retainers are off a Chev V6.

    Re: Conicals and retainers for 8 valves.

    yeah they be chromoly....

    if they are the ones im thinking, you can also get titanium ones (I think the lt-4 corvette used them)


    I may be mistaken about the chromoly... i vaguely remember having an option between iron, chromoly and titanium....

    Re: Conicals and retainers for 8 valves.

    I think titanium is overkill, they are already lighter than stock ones.

    Re: Conicals and retainers for 8 valves.

    ah i was looking at the 995 springs, you are selling the 26995 springs
    i was looking at the 16918 springs the have slightly more open pressure and slightly less seat pressure, which would be better? and what degree are our locks? i always thought ours were 7

    I think both would be fine, matter of choice I guess. Also look at the max lift each one can take, that will be another factor.

    Our angle is 8 deg.

    I'll figure it out today, I would guess under $10, I can put them in a bubble pack.

    Re: Conicals and retainers for 8 valves.

    Hi,

    i'd need a full set for one or maybe two 8v heads please
    they'd be going to be shipped to Mike's (90Dodgevnt) place, dunno where he's at actually lol. he's gonna pack up some things for me. i'll let you know where to ship this (and whether one or two sets )
    what costs am i looking at?

    (in case of two sets, i'll prolly get the full 16 springs from summit or somewhere and only retainers from you )
