Thread: Which supertech valve spring set to get..

Thanks for the input all.

I am going with the second (softer) set because that is what my gut says and its what most ppl have suggested in this thread, no doubt the stiffer spring would be as good but I don't think it gives any added benefit in my application, maybe with some cam that has shorter duration, possibly better on 16ve regular cams.

what would be considered big boost? or hp rating for the 130s? just curious whats the turning point from the 100 to 130 (whats needed)

Wondering the samething, what's the turning point from going with100 to 130 springs

I just went with them for the little bit extra security. Most people use the 100 lb seat pressure springs. However most of the guys are n/a as well.

I had planned to run 40psi of boost so you have to account that there is going to be 40 psi on the top side of the valve. Again my own personal choice and added security to prevent any pressure leakage from the valve area and for the high rpm that i was going to be revving to.

i was thinking anything over 25 psi would be the turning point, did you have to machine ur seats for the 130?

No, I understand thats what it says on mazworx site but its just as drop in and go as the 100 lb seat pressure springs.

No issues at all with the valvetrain and again it saw 10,200 rpm during a pass and 9800 rpm before that on the dyno and other passes.

yeah i seen alot of machine needed on different sites and i wasnt sure if it was really a nessasery , 130 here i come

10,200

I know, right? I thought the same thing

Once again for my setup I'm planning on going with the 130. My set. Cosists of the following :

Sr20ve
N1 cams (future)
Precision sc61
Vet pistons
Eagle rods
Acl 5 hole
Acl other bearings
Arp headstuds
Vet metal headgasket
Stock retainers
9k-9500 cut out
Go.....
