H-D Valve Springs..where to buy?

[FoxRacing81]

Okay guys...my motor is a stock bore, Redline Motorsports race ported and polished head, and a hotcams stage two with stock everything else. It ticks fairly loud when it warms up...so I'm thinking its the valve springs? Where could I buy some Heavy duty ones? Thanks..

heavy duty valve springs wont do anything for that. actually im pretty sure they make ticking even worse since they have more tension to em

Yes, they will make it a slight bit louder, but it shouldn't be noticeable to the human ear. The ticking is most likely from the more aggressive cam. Check you valve lash and make sure it is within spec. If it is, the cam is just a little more aggressive, which makes it louder. The higher lift causes the rocker to slap the top of the valve, making noise.
