I'm looking for some valve springs for my 75 2.0. A few of mine are out of spec. If it's a better idea to pony up and buy new ones, let me know.....

....IF one old valve spring is out of spec.....the others ain;t far behind....NEW valve springs should be installed reguardless, in every rebuild. They are cheap insurance for a quality job, and they are just not that expensive..........I.M.O...mm.
