Interesting article on beehive springs in Hot Rod this month. There testing showed behive spring with about 100lb less open pressure as a traditional spring and better top end performance. Talking about a win, taking 100lb of your spring load from 375 to 275? and getting better results and substantially reducing valve train loads. In fact they said the dual springs helped low end a little due to the valve train deflection and widening the LSA!!!
