Why Conical Springs Lead in Harmonic Control
Conical springs utilize variable coil diameter and spacing to naturally dampen valvetrain harmonics—reducing shock, minimizing wear, and extending component life. Compared to cylindrical or beehive designs, conical springs offer superior harmonic stability, making them ideal for engines pushed to the edge by aftermarket tuning.
Built for Longevity and Performance
Each spring undergoes a multi-step heat treatment and features a super-finished surface for enhanced durability and consistent performance. Whether you're chasing higher RPMs or dialing in more boost, this kit is built to keep your RB26 valvetrain in check.
