Beehive Valve Springs on Champion CI Head

[Hot Air]

I have CI Champion heads and have bought Com Cam beehive springs
(26918). No directions. What is proper installed height?

Install height is 1.75", you are using the 10º +.50 Super Locks too right? They are a must.

I just installed these on my aluminum heads. On aluminum heads you will need the spring seats and retainers. I didn't have to use the +.050" retainers. If you have a roller you need to set these up to be around 150 lbs on the seat. ~1.72-1.73" Installed height.
