Valve springs - What do I order and where?
Thought I'd replace the valve springs in my Hemi while I did the rebuild, but I cannot find new ones ANYWHERE near Calgary. Where is a good place to order them online, and what do I ask for? I've heard the 6.1 exhaust springs are good, but do I use 5.7 intake springs or just the exhaust springs all around?
Here you go....6.1 exh springs and push rods
You replace all the current springs with (16) 6.1 exh springs which are list below as well as the push rods to help with any ticking.

So what's that, $4 a pop on the springs there? Might wanna check with your dealer too. I bought 16 springs when I bought my cam (which are ALL still sitting in a box in the garage
) and I can't remember exactly but know I paid $4 and change from my local dealer at the time...
I was actually amazed they are so inexpensive. My local performance shop guru strongly suggested Comp or Manley springs, but I had heard of Comps breaking and the Manleys are like 4x the price of the 6.1s, even from the dealer and from what I hear, the 6.1s are just as good...
