[QUOTE=Grant Eldridge;237444]The deflection I've measured is about .015" from checking spring to race springs on my 396 stocker motor. QUOTE]

Grant, sometimes it can be WAY more difference than that. I learned the hard way on this too. Never use checking springs, use the race springs at the pressure your going to run to be accurate.
