Springs Retainers

I need some help from the forum members out there.
I have a company I work with who has been building the springs and retainers for all my drag motors.
I need some parts from someone who has blown up a motor or had the motor fail and no longer needs it.
I need 1 intake valve 1 exhaust valve the springs and retainers and keepers from those valves so I can have him build a prototype set for testing. If all works out I can offer springs/retainers for the fit at a great price. Whoever gets me these needed parts would get their own set at a great discount.
Thanks much!

because he is willing to go out of his way to design a set of springs and retainers for us without charging for R&D
he makes all the springs and retainers i use in my drag motors...they held up better then skunk2...supertech...rocket motorsports...crower....to name a few....and the only company i could find that would hondle toda spec d cams up to 14,000rpm...his shit is that good

if your stock no point...if your boosted or running an aftermarket cam then it makes sense...small investment to protect the engine...also some stock motors that have to soft of a spring dont follow the cam lobe profile very well and you can see an increase in power with a stiffer/stronger spring

as for aftermarket cams rocket motorsports, web cams, crane cams, etc can weld/regrind your stock cam to any spec
