We always run PSI or PAC valve springs on most of our builds. One thing we learned over the years and thousands of engines is to thoroughly clean and wipe down the springs and do not touch them bare handed during cleaning and assembly process. Ones finger prints and body oils will causing rusting issues over time with condensation and causes stress areas for breakage. Many will doubt and not believe, but with 10's of thousands of dyno R&D hours. We have proved this over the years.

Related question, is anybody stocking the melonized distributor gear/shaft? I got one from Hughes last May. It was in stock when I ordered it and I got it promptly.
