Some things that we justify in our minds, especially on race parts, don't make it true shruggy
Spurgoen Goins years ago, who owned AFR at that time , told me to compress every valve spring within .100 of coil bind in a vice and let it sit for at least 4 hrs. to allow the spring to "normalized" He was doing contract work for GM and Jr. Johnsons NASCAR team on the valve train and cylinder heads at that time up
