Moog 7170
Moog is listing the 5662s as stiffer than the 5664s, which are taller with a thicker wire. So unless the 5664s have more turns, they must be the 748 pounds per inch, contrary to the specs. Either way, now that i actually have a 454, with iron heads, i was considering these. 12.6" free length, 0.81" wire dia, and 845 ppi, so at a load of 1950, the height would be 10.29", where the 5662 and 5664 specs both give 10.75", the 5664s at a load of 1863.
These are going for around $60, so i may as well try.

Tomorrow I place the order, I have set money aside out of this paycheck, which will be direct-deposited before I wake up in the morning.
