What valve spring should I use

Hey I have a set of revolver cams that I'm putting in and wanted to know what valve springs to use has anyone used these cams that can suggest a good spring. It's a daily driver stock turbo not planning to rev it much higher than stock

dude there is a for sale thread, so go there.... every post you keep wanting to sell your cams and springs

i dont think you need springs and retainers for revolver cams!! but if you want good springs, supertech or kiggleys.

MAP offers valve springs that are rated to be very similar to the GSC bee hives. I have revved them up to 7600 several times and on the dyno several times and not having any valve float.

Kiggly. GSC. or Supertechs. They're all good (HKS, not so much)
