I have to ask who 'we' is, according to your 'solodogg' name you should have only one personality.

Okay, first of all my statements are not false. My statements are 100% true. I'll be more than happy to show anyone the pictures of the shop, and even let everyone put their hands on the damn prototype manifold. I don't understand why you feel the need to lie to everyone, when you did nothing but provide indy with a damn car. Good god....

...

btw...yes..magnum valve springs are the same stiffness as the crane valvesprings. If i'm at the machine shop again soon, i'll get specific numbers for you guys.

even tho this is too late.....i installed a crane 12 with the springs, no retainers, cause like peole agree...its a waste.....and damn did it make a difference, i've heard the 14 is a bit more crazy top end, but not worth the power u loose down low, the 12 is amazing round the city, and worth every penny.
