valve springs

How long do valve springs last from a.p.e.? I have used a set for 5 years.
I've used them at 10,000 11,000 rpm. I want to put two bottom retainers together.

What seat pressure am I looking at with new springs?
What is robinson caruso's first name?
:ohmy: I have 460 springs and .407 lift and another retainer should be
just what I need. I have to keep the valves in there and not bouncing.

I remember the motor with the new springs, and that first ride was Tight.

The new ape springs were tight, I just don't know if they are anymore, I'll
have to check them installed so I know what I have for seat pressure and for
coil bind. I think I'm on my way to a knew valve train.

wait'll you see this head, hee hee, if anything it looks like something that
would work. I'll take that concellation and move on, either way I'm gonna keep
this thing fast enough and want the cylinder head to contribute as much as poss.

I'll fgure out how to downlaod :woohoo: pictures and show what I have. :whistle:

I think the earliest pictures I remember, people were carrying chisles.
And I think of that picture at the same time I'm going to get a chisle and hammer.

And that scares me.

So if the bike looks nice it can cover up the fact I'm a primitve creature, just some
pathetic clown that whoa, whoa. stop this now

Try a set of these bbc valve springs,cuz you can never be too safe! :sick: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
