why do AFR springs suck?

superman5.0 · October 8th, 2007, 10:06 PM

i have heard numerous times that the springs that come with the AFR heads are not good at all, what is it about them that makes them so bad?

theyre not bad at all there just not rated to much lift.'''.55o''

which is why you have valve float at 6k with them?

Cheap parts to keep the cost down, that is why they are junk.

darrel...i see that as really funny..cuz that goes against what every company says.."we only put the best parts in to get the maximum power"..thats like what every company says...its just funny how they lie/ contradict themselves..
