Well do your research. Like most of this stuff only a select few companies actually make the products you buy. Most of the names I have seen suggested here DO NOT manufacture their product. PAC does. Oh yeah dont bury your head in the sand either. Any company making a spring if it is truly any good is buying their steel from Japan. Kobe steel, much like Kobe beef is arguably the best stuff in the world. Look around and ask the questions.

PSI, for me 100%,
and by the way Holly just went into some kind of bankrupsy, and they offered lonati back to Joe Lonati, a lot cheaper than the millions that they paid him for it, joe said no thanks. So Comp Cams bought Lonati and is now running both companies and going wide open.

I was just informed that all of Isky springs are PSI, way to go Isky. I've bought a couple sets from a top NASCAR team, that are all PSI and i'm told that's all they use. The springs i bought have 400 laps on them and the spring pressure checked out as new at the installed height. Now i'm not suggesting that you buy used springs, but i've bought these springs at the most of $42.00 per set, will i run them, you bet i will, Devil beware, i'll be at the track with them. That's my story and i'm sticking to it.

If i could find a set of Nascar pushrods to the length i need i'd buy them, but most of them are for SB2.2 heads and won't fit my application, so i'm stuck with Manton's at near 30.00 each.
