That's why the factory introduced a more durable valve spring beginning with the introduction of the 1970 solid lifter engines.
Warranty work increased do to too many dropped valves on the previous 69 releases. |

for springs I would say Crane 99893s are THE best all around spring. I have used these on everything from .520 lift hyd cams to the .622 ultradyne solid I run now....last forever

Crane Camshafts doors are closed right now. Unless the banks give them a second chance, you better find an alternative for a reproduction camshaft. The 969961 is gone unless you can find one hidden on a shelf from somewhere.
