  • High-quality conical beehive valve springs with steel retainers and locks
  • Supports valve lift up to .600 inches for aggressive camshaft profiles
  • Compatible with Edelbrock LS series intake manifolds and camshafts
  • 50-state street legal (CARB compliant)

Easy ordering process

Easy to use site, worked great

GOOD

Found the product via a link in a message board. Looking into the problem of SMOD experienced by Xterras. Found your site to be cheaper than Amazon, though I may have received the shipping free from Prime. Either way, your site said it was compatible with my truck, Amazon said it wasn't. I'm going with the people who deal less with books and cheap Chinese knockoffs.

Love the low prices

Had part in stock. Ordering was easy.

Easy Affordable

Thanks for the easy order.
