I called engle and eddlebrock both said the stock stuff would be ok! I wanted to check incase I was told wrong when this was done the first time! They both said it would be fine with the same thing I had before.
But was also almost at limit but the factory stuff supplied would be fine.
Someone like Ryan who see them when the new wears off so to say, would Know if they will hold up to the test of time. As he stated about the 1111 huges ones don't.I wonder how the stock ones supplied with the heads hold up?
I was planing on changing the whole mess{springs,locks and retainers.
Under the springs looks to be a brass or copper colored washers not cuped shape that is not rust and looks nothing like the ones listed here Spring Cups
One head looks to have no damage at all.
