Oh sorry I meant to say I want to talk Ron into getting new springs and valves for his head.


The phone I on sucks with wifi or something and has a hard time loading things after I press enter or whatever. I guess I wouldn't mine all new everything. Ha

Ron was talking to me about springs and how over time the spring become, softer in a way.
So i told him mayne he sould just get new hight comp springs and Z car valves..
He and i do understand the old springs are fine.. then he started talkimg about getting a hotter cam
Then hed kinda need new springs anyway..





When i press enter half the time it cuts what i say im half.

Comp springs and regular springs are 2 different things. I have taken my stock springs in my U67 to 7200rpm. Too hot a cam and you get spring bind so comp springs are needed. I think it happens north of 485 lift...

I have a whole set of regular springs. If needed.

Just buy a new oil cooler for something that fits a Ford. Driven gave the filter numbers above.

I don't want to fix it. I want to test fit it in the 210.

Driven wants you to help my progress. He told me in my thread. He's getting bored with me.
