Call Eddie Young, he will provide everything you need. Correct springs, locks, bolts etc.

Call Eric at Teague and get some Isky Tool Room springs.

Part # TVS-1631

High quality, stock spec replacement springs. Put them in my 525 before last season.

Seals: Comp Cams # 515-16

Locks: Manley 1399M3T-1

Retainers: Manley #2399M3T-1

OP, I would recommend a search on here regarding the springs, appears stock replacements are not the way to go. Reputable skilled builders don't recommend them.

Thirdchildhood posted exactly what I would have posted. Teague is the way to go for ordering unless someone has another outlet at better price.

in all of my reading, everyone seems to be using isky springs.

Isky 8005A springs and change retainers and locks to 10 degree to get 1.850 installed height.

Agree with HyFive, we used the same parts and used Johnson lifters. "Isky 8005A springs and change retainers and locks to 10 degree to get 1.850 installed height."
