Just got off the phone with the roadster factory and
they do not have collars for dual springs, part 105118
is for single spring setup. They don't have a dual
system for sale even though it is listed in cat. Man
said it was a misprint.
In Victoria Brittish cat, they now list the dual
spring collar for $4.95. A year ago they did not have
any. I don't know, but was told you can damage head
and camshaft without the propper collar to hold the
dual springs. I guess they have a second base groove
in them to seat the inner valve spring.
Can anyone else clarify this.....?????
Thanks,
Donald Stike
