Valve springs

Recommended Posts

Is it worth replacing all valve springs when I refurb my head? I've seen upgrade springs on heritage too, are they worth the extra and what are the benefits?

 

Cheers!

Updated springs are meant for updated cams to prevent coil binding with higher lift cams and also valve float, if your using standard cams they will do nothing except put extra load on the rest of the valve train and accelerate wear. It would be better to use NEW standard springs instead. Having said that you could use slightly heavier springs if you want to push the revs up a bit and have the peace of mind of not getting valve float
