Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
We were very tired of waiting for our perferred vendors to get titanium in stock, so we decided to work with a new vendor. With there help we came up with an upgraded valvespring that should easily support 9000rpm and most aftermarket camshafts (except the fp3x and up).
These also come with a Chrome-moly retainer. $279.00!!! We do not have them in stock currently, as we haven't placed an inventory order, but they are a week out if we need them. |
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Any idea of the actual spring pressures?

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
I would have to see the profile on the 280's. Lift, duration, ramp angles. I haven't tried them yet.
What spring pressures do you want Jet, and at what lift? |
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Can you get these for a 95 M3?
|
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
I can look into getting springs for you peter.
What specs are you looking for? Upgrading cams? Just pm me. |
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Probably keeping the stock cams, because anything aftermarket is 1500 for a set... But a different chip will let me rev higher, and Im doing lifters anyway.
|
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Cool. How high are you reving it? Do you have a valve spring compressor?
|
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Just wondering so people can compare them to Crower's, etc. My Crower's are actually doing ok with the 415's, but I would feel safer with something a tad stiffer.

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
I have measured Crower and stock springs for dsms and the Crowers are about 70lbs at an installed hight of 1.57" and a stock spring is 66lbs. Then if you have a .4" lift cam that would be 190lbs of pressure vs stock of ~170lbs at .4" lift. So Crowers are about ~11% stiffer at .4". The LSE spring/retainer combo will work for anyone running a Crower 64415-2 cam size and reving to 9000rpm, then we can size/come up with a dual valve spring kit. Then when Ti becomes available we can sell that also.

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
The car revs to 7 with a Dinan chip in it now.. I would get a different chip that will either leave it at 7 or raise it to 7.5.
Either way, I kind of want to replace the stock springs with new ones or nicer ones. The car is getting close to 100k, so I figure if I replace the lifters, why not do the springs in case I decide to mod the car more in the future. |
Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Hell yeah, about time you introduced yourself into some power.
So thats retainer's & springs for $279?!! Seems like a good deal |

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Alright, why the chromoly retainer? Are you making it thinner than the stockers?

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Chromoly isn't lighter than carbon steel, so I was just wondering why these would be better than the stock retainers?

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
Chromoly is stronger so you could take some material off and keep the same strength. A huge weight savings would be a groove going up between the valve and the spring. That material does nothing in there. You could probably save 25% of the weight in there.

Re: Another new product, High Rev Valvespring Kit!
So will these work for the Crower Stage 3 64114 cams? PM me if they will.
