When i had the heads off and never really thinking about the springs. I didn't bother switching out the springs and left the stock ones. the grind on the cam isn't radical so I figured the factory set up should handle .45 lift. Well i talked my self into replacing the springs. got a set from comp along with retainers. problem is the roller rockers need the deeper setting of the retainers top on the factory ones. anyone know what i mean before i pull my hair out? and will the new springs work ok with the factory retainers? gotta get new clips i noticed though. thanks i will take a pic if you need to see more info. i know this may sound confusing.
 
Call or contact Alex's Parts, bought my springs from him. My machinist was so impressed that he only orders from Alex now.
