I used one of the HD springs for a little while. Sorta cool seeing up to
100 lbs at start-up, but no difference when fuly hot. One of the rebuilders
said he never uses them, not even on tr6 race engines. I went back to a
stock spring known to be good.
Know this doesn't solve your oil pressure
issue, - all the best.
