    Good springs, I'm running them at I think 1.74 installed height so that has the seat pressure at 130#. 10k without a problem.

    I'm running them on a stock timing chain and damper, and had no issues yet (about 5k on them)

    I had a set but never used them because my heads came with 130# springs so i just used those. I sold the ones i had.

    Really? I'd be worried that the chain would eventually snap.

    Im on a stock chain too. Turn it 6300 rpm. No problem yet. Going to be pulling the trans soon and planned on taking a look at the chain and dampner.

    I've run Crow 105's and 130's and never had an issue. I've run both with JP single or RM single with no weird wear issue.

    The chain itself is not the weak link, it's the dampner that usually takes a crap, most bump up the idle a hair to avoid the added wear.
