I am weighing my options on my ultra-budget 440 build. I will be running around a .500 lift hydraulic cam. Typical street hot rod thing.
Is there a drop in spring that will work with stock retainers and seals etc.?
Most aftermarket springs seem to be around 1.5 OD, and my stock retainers are closer to 1.3...
I have researched some and I know I can buy a kit. Just trying to save some cash is all.
If there is not a spring that will drop in, is there a combo of spring and retainer that would work without machining?
I do have proper tools here for measuring installed height and spring tension.
Thank you for your help.
