    Dart claims the 200's are "ideal for 383-400 where excellent torque is desired without loosing the ability to wind it out occationally" The 1.437 double springs are 130#@1.800"/.620 max (Comp cams 981) They also have 1.250 single and 1.55 double available. If the 1.437's are wimpy why do they even offer 1.250's?

    I really apprieciate all the input Im getting on this as I'm just learning.

    Thanks again,
    Sean
    A LOT OF RACE SPRINGS ARE AT 1.550 DIA.MOST OF OUR ROLLER CAMS ARE SET UP WITH ABOUT 225 SEAT PRESSURE.OF COURSE I WOULD NEVER RUN THIS MUCH SEAT PRESSURE IN A STREET CAR.
