Suggested valve springs for 1966 L72
My 1966 L72 came to me with the wrong (hydraulic cam) engine in it. I am replacing it with a factory spec L72 solid lifter nitrated cam. The engine is a 1969 vintage and I will continue to use it even though I have the BORN WITH block for the car in my garage.
The original L72 valve springs were notorious for breaking. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good replacement with part numbers and where to buy?
