Valve springs

Can anybody school me on valve springs type, adjustment, can they make car run bad, etc, thanks

Like everything else, it depends on your combo. Generally speaking, a common upgrade is install Comp 980 springs. Given the age an original spring is now, even a new set of stockers couldn't hurt. There is no adjustment in the stock set up. Are you trying to identify a problem (can they make car run bad, etc)? I see you have no info on your car other than 'restored'. Any upgrades?

I'm just here gathering info because I just ordered the 980's and I'm pretty much a noob. I've got everything tore down to do a few repairs and upgrades. This thread looked promising when I clicked on it but I guess since OP never responded back, I'm up for any info or pointers any buddy might feel like sharing.
