That can be misleading...yes, they are affectionately called "R/T Springs"
but they are just Mopar Performance (Magnum) Valvesprings. They are not the
springs that come on the R/T's but can be used with the R/T and R/T+10
camshafts.

P4876062 or P5249464 - Application depending.

Are the Mopar Performance springs also known as the R/T Springs? That's
what I have on there now. That's what Marty called them.

I was running 1.6:1 rockers with my .512 cam and switched to 1.7:1 rockers.
.540 lift was a bit much for the springs I had so I upgraded to the stronger
Mopar Performance springs (don't have the part number handy but they handle
up to .600" lift). Haven't busted another spring yet...even at 6000rpm. :)

Sure...just pop on in and answer a question like nothing ever happened! LOL.
Glad to see you're around!

The rockers I have on hand for my 408 are 1.7:1. I'd like to use these but
will this be too much with a .512 lift cam?

Thanks
