I guess you like swapping pistons and replacing valves.

???? i would personally go with crower

 

I dunno, all I've ever seen in the all-motor and tech forums is "oh noes, my Skunk2 retainer/valve/valvespring broke and now my head/pistons are fux0red!" As opposed to 0 threads on how any other valvetrain companies products have failed. I liked the one thread where this guy had like 8-10 s2 valvesprings all snapped in the exact same spot.

 

i c thanks for the info

 

Crower or Ferrea, I'm running crower. Good stuff.

 

I plan on using zex springs since I am going to be running a zex cam.

 

zex cam owns me

 

I have Skunk2 and have had no problems yet ::knocks on wood::

Hawt. I don't think your kids are going to turn out looking to good, though.

 

No, but my motor will.

 

crower dual's for me.....

 

Any benefits running other than OEM CTR valve springs in my stock B16B motor?
I want to put in fresh valve springs and was considering Toda/Jun/Crower.

Any disadvantage in doing so?

 

I have some JUN dual valve springs that are going to in my motor with CTR cams.

 

so everyone agrees on crower? it seems kms is pretty good too though by the specs on d series even though i have a b series?

 

Crower b series valvesprings are actually Eibach.

Well actually you have an option (crower or eibach) last time I checked.
