Valve spring question

Are the valve springs progressive. I've read they are and a proper install is required. I cannot see this on my springs. Eg anyway will do ?? Thanks lyndon |

Normally the tighter wind is pretty easy to see. Maybe try to post a picture?

Take a 1/4” drill bit and spiral it to each end you will see the difference

Yep it's progressive.
Learn something every day. So easy to see once I used the drill bit and marked it. The white mark nearest the bottom is the bottom when installing. A side note I can't find any info on spring fitment in Wayne's book  Thanks again Lyndon |
