The GSC beehives with ti retainers are pretty sweet.

Only really need springs if you are using bigger cams, more boost, and/or revving past like 7500. And if it's a 2.0 you need to swap to shimless buckets too with any of that.

Thanks guys. This is going in an LGT with VF52 with more boost so better springs sounds good.

Also the Larry's Power website is amazing. Clearly their reputation does their advertising for them so no need to hire a slick web guy.

VF52 is not really what I meant by more boost. I'm talking like 30+ psi and big turbos. With stock cams and that turbo you don't really need it. And you want the softest springs that don't float, otherwise you're putting unneeded higher forces on the valve seats, cams, buckets, retainers.
