it'll get to him soon enough lol. i went to what i thought was his shop tuesday, drove around the complex like 5x and thought i lost my damn mind. his neighbors say he just up and disappeared on them and they hadn't the slightest idea where to and owner of complex wasn't on site to lend a helping hand. but i found his new addy, so i'll see about taking it over there again in the near future.Originally Posted by 2drSE-i

ok, should be taking it by within the next hour and a half.
Any word on the roller rockers?
I'm probably going to be picking another set of springs up and a cam or two at some point...

^^ valve springs?
i asked him about roller rockers. He pretty much said it wouldnt be feasable for him to produce them, and im with him on that. The two of us who could afford it (not me at this point in time) wouldnt be worth it to him.
has snoopy gotten the cam gear to him?
That's what I figured. Can't blame him, what do we have 2 or 3 that bought springs so far?

yeah he has it in his hands, placed it there about 1347 on friday afternoon. really nice guy.
sweet. They never called me back about my question with the springs...
had to take the stock seats out and get the shop to put washers in place to keep the inner spring flat. It wanted to bind up and shift off to the side. But only the intake side.
what the faak. and even in that pic, it looks like that washer is slightly off, and the spring is not seating perfectly. I would be scared that those don't just chatter around on the seats. Are those springs larger outer diameter than the stock intakes?
-Mark D.
the washer is slightly larger the the seat.
The bisi springs are the size of the exhaust springs.

im gonna say you should not run those like that. Get some exhaust retainers and call it a day. That looks dangerous, why risk having to rebuild your head (again...)
Just use the exhaust seats and retainers on the intake, and yes they do fit.
