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.

I think I got mine from them mid-summer, and had to wait for it.
