Need a good replacement spring.
I know 6.1 exhaust springs are good but does the LS crowd offer the same for less?
Need locks, keepers and seals as well.
Stock 5.7 NON eagle head with 6.1 cam in it. Stock valves.
Thanks
Matt

I decided to replace the valve springs on the used 5.7 engine that's going in the Durango and these are the ones that I went with from ebay.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Valve-Spri...DX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

I figured it was far easier to replace them while the engine was out rather than take a chance that one would break later.

Our local Mopar engine builder said that the replacement have the anti-oscillation damper on the outside of them.
He said that's why the earlier ones tend to break.
He said he used the ones like this and hasn't had a problem with them.


Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol
