How do the Lunati springs hold up compared to other brands? I am recommended to use Lun 73124 springs. Please let me know what your thoughts are. Thanks!

I used Lunati springs on a couple roundy round small block chevies I built. Held up well. I admit they were not very aggressive cams or springs though, but they did have the pee run out of em.

I think most of the springs available today from a wide variety of companies are really made by only a few actual spring companies.
you can bet on that, as are retainers and many other items. in some cases the manufacture may not even normally be associated with or have a commonly know name in the aftermarket. you can bet that all the companies selling springs don't have the equipment to wind and heat treat springs. years ago i was researching retainers and noticed at that time k-motion retainers were the dimensionally exactly the same as manley only the specs as listed were reversed.

PAC and PSI are regarded as the top of the line, if you're looking for that.
