Re: Valve Springs
Manley 650 lb. per " NexTex springs, 320# on the seat 830# on the nose. Beat up on them a little bit like Regan does,, there good for a season (about 50 miles if it's a good season
![]() One of your best friends here is LSM. The actual # you read is really not the issue. CHANGES in the # is important. When springs go away they start beating things up REAL quick. With titanium valves running about $120 EACH it's not something you let go unchecked. Figure $1800 in valves and $600 for lifters,, letting spring pressure go unchecked can get REAL expensive in a big hurry. This little LSM gadget will give you a reliable # to compare to your baseline in less time than it takes to adjust the lash. ![]()
