    Sorry but Im changing my mind already. Now Im thinking about getting the 1.9 modified rockers. But my engine has 138K miles, so would I be alright with the stock springs if I did increse shifting to 6200rpm? Sorry if I'm being a PITA guys, I'm just trying to figure all this out lol.

    yeah you'll be fine. You'll probably want to get 105 springs with 1.9's i believe. (though while you're at it get the 1.95's)

    I found some l76/l92 springs, with retainers, and keepers off an L92 pretty cheap. Would those work? and would I use the keepers and retainers it comes with?
