Question Valve Spring Recommendations?

Installing a Andrews EV72. Any brand preferences for Hi-Lift valve springs and collars? Any advise appreciated!

Bob Wood offers a Lifetime Warranty on his springs. 160, 188, and 200 psi seat pressure.
We use 'em, and they DO NOT fade.
Best spring on the market today.

Fatboy is right on the Crane units. We use a ton of them here. Very good spring.
The Wood spring are of yet another quality.

We've ran into ALOT of problems with the Crane Ultima's in the past year. Had a bunch fail. Hopefully they've got it figures out.
