You are right. My merlins were supposed to come with springs with 140lbs of closed pressure. I ran them a few times. We couldn't figure out why I couldn't get any power at higher rpms. Took one off and it was a 90lb spring. WTF.

Heads flow great, but you are right about the tearing down. If they came from a catalog, even the darts need to come apart.

800-900. Looks like alot is rough. Some of it needs a dumpster. By the time you find a buyer for some of it, it won't be worth your time or energy.

I hate to say it but that stuff doesn't look like it's worth what you'll pay for the IBprofin you'll need for your back after you load it.
