I have a used set of CRN-99484 springs that have about a 1000 miles on them. I'm switching to a roller Comp cam and switched the springs as well. Don't know if you can use them, but if you want them, you can have them for shipping only.

Crane just very recently shut its doors.
Call some of the major performance automotive suppliers see if they have that part # in there stock, if not you have the spring specs you need, the other cam companies can fix you up with a set of springs.

Tried all of these but no luck. DougHerbert site took the order but I called in to check and they said no gas and to cancel the order.

Any other ideas? I am all ears!

A quality valve spring from any manufactuer will suffice. You just need to focus on height and spring rate issues. I have those springs installed but am looking at swapping to the Comp Cams beehive springs.
