kent and piper springs single or double are crap you end up getting valve float at high revs,buy yourself a set of the pumaracing springs run any cam profile you like,these springs enable you to rev to 8000rpm with NO valve float whatsoever ( if your engine Components can handle it ) just fit them and forget them, very well priced i have been using them with great Effect for the last two years, I try to Recommend these springs to everyone you wont be Disappointed
