    atlanticspeed.com has them for under $185 shipped. . . At least that's what a quick Google Shopping search pulled up on the 26918's. Everywhere else is right around $200-$220.

      don't forget about locators, retainers, and locks!

        Lunati 74818K5LUN valve spring kit was the best bang for the buck I could find. 11/32" single groove 10* retainers, locks, springs, good for .600 lift. 86705LUN are the correct locators

            You can use the 918 springs with the factory retainers, locks and locators. I did without problem in my LS1. Not sure if you have a LT1
            When in doubt, Whip it out !

                I think LT1 setup requires a different setup Aluminum heads require a locator 4705-16. You will need new retainers and maybe +.050 locks (795-16 and 614-16 for the 10* stuff)
