XYZ Donating Members 1,171 Member For: 15y 4m 19d Posted 10/04/10 03:15 AM Share Posted 10/04/10 03:15 AM Hey Guys,Just finalising all parts needed on my next set of Mods to my FG. Has anyone changed their valve springs on their FG's? Just wanted to know if these are something I should be adding to my list as well.

I know the standard ones should be fine at this power level, however was thinking of longevity.. Or would this be just a waste of money as the standard ones are fine?Ben Edited 10/04/10 09:07 AM by revheadrobbo No need to quote above post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do soften up after 50-100,000Ks then change em. No need to change em now nor for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
