Or if you want you can buy my set of new stock springs, after I had my head rebuilt, I took it apart and installed the BBC's :D

Greg: LOL Hey if I can break a Ferrea I can break a CC Spring ;)
(difference being the safety net the inner provides means replace the broken spring and it's good to go again)

TKA: It's not so much a float issue when everything is stock as the motor can't rev hard due to the ECU limiter but (and there's always a but) with old sacked out stock springs that are under 40 lbs seat pressure if you start cranking the boost it acts against the back of the Intake valve.

So take your base pressure of 35 lbs then say 20 psi boost and you can see how you can float the valves at rather low rpm, it's not as dangerous as it seems as our motors are non interference and when they float they just lose power and NOT hurt parts.

No, what will make him cry is that I have 4 sets sitting in my garage for myself.

Lots of other places can order these also. Try Jegs, if Summit is backordered.

it says "This item is expected to ship in 7-10 days." in red under the selection in the check out...now is one of those keen ways of saying on backorder?

They maybe drop shipping them right from comp.
If that is the cast then it would explain the 7-10 day to ship time. But remember, that it will be another 3-4 business days for travel time on he shipment after the 7-10 day wait.
