I was checking out things on epay and came across some one selling Elgin big block mopar valve spings rated for up to .555 lift. part number rv-9907S After reading the desciption again I realized these springs also fit big block chevy. After reviewing intalled spring heights I think .535 is the max lift for these springs on a mopar. Are these springs worth trying on a buget build or is this a classic case of you get what you pay for?

I suspect the springs are not made in Elgin. I was just wondering if anyone had used these springs. $29.99 seems inexspensive for 16 valve springs. Can you recomend another set of affordable big block valve springs that will support a cam with around .510 lift?
