Posted 03/12/08 11:43 PM Share Posted 03/12/08 11:43 PM (edited) moral of the story is, every car, every set of springs and every tune is different. Do your mods and get your tune, if at the time your tuner says you need valve springs, get them done then. There is no set rwkw figure that these springs to letgo..from this forum it could be anything from 250-350>rwkilla wasps Edited 03/12/08 11:44 PM by ravenhard Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51982-ba-valve-srings/page/2/#findComment-780191 Share on other sites More sharing options...
