How much do they weigh? Not a bad price and they look great. 17" would be nice but if they are relatively light I can talk myself into it :)

3SX's site claims you can use stock springs with BC272's. Ray recommends upgrading springs for BC272's... I'm considerably more inclined to trust Ray.

I like the stock springs because they get along perfectly with the stock t-belt tensioner... And they're cheaper.

Yes then I would totally go with ray and whatever he said . Upgrade the springs . But as u said , stock springs do go nicely with the oem tensioner . I bent valves from using a oem tensioner with springs so me personally would never go down that road again lol . But thats just me.

Said screw it and ordered the BC springs... I will set the tension in the belt with the tensioner bottomed out so that it can't be overwhelmed.
