I just finished a building and install a new motor and have come to the conclusion that my existing springs wont cut it. Would someone go over my parts order and tell me if they are gonna be correct. The heads are Superflow 190cc Aluminum 64cc chamber, 1.625 Spring Pockets, Bronze guides. More can be found here 190cc Superflowheads

Heres what i have installed so far:
COMP XE282HR .510 .520 230* 230* 236*@.050
Summit Hyd. Roller Lifters
Comp Hi-Tech Pushrods
Summit 1.5 Aluminum RR's

Heres what im needing to order:
Comp 986-16 Springs
Comp 740-16 Retainers
Comp 611-16 10* Valve Locks

The springs are what Comp recommends. Here are the parts# specs:

Sorry for the long post, but i figured the info was needed. Thanks for the help.

 

I know that those are the correct retainers for the springs. I'll take your word for it on the locks- they look right from the specs.

Don't overlook the installed height of the spring! Different heads the installed height could end up all over the map- shimming may be required. Too tall and you loose pressure. Too short and you could hit coil bind at max lift.

A decent quality valve height mic is expensive- about $80- and worth every penny. Buy it and keep it in your tool kit. If you futz around with engines more than just once in a while you'll be glad you shelled out for one.

 

Thanks for the help Damon.

Whats the meaning of "recessed for lash caps"?

I see summit has a height mic for $40. Its from 1.400 to 1.800. I cant find out and dont know what the install height is for these springs. Would it be over 1.800"?

 

Lash caps are small hardened "buckets" that can be put on the valve tip (upside-down) to prevent the rocker tip from digging/grinding into the valve tip in high-pressure situations. You don't need them, beleive me, and it won't hurt anything by not using them with those locks.
