crower makes 2 different sets of valvesprings and they also offer some eibach's

which ones do u have?

68185-16 B Series VTEC Dual Spring
68188-16 Hi-Pres. Dual Race (B Series VTEC)
68186-16 Eibach Dual Spring (B Series VTEC)

all of those springs should be good to ~9500rpm... ITR's are good till 9000 and they have considerably softer seat pressures

Im not a motor builder but I would say yes. I will also tell you that if you change the springs change the valves. I run S2S2s and their springs and retainers. I have had 2 motors now break valve heads off. Being told its because of the spring preasure, lift and the two peace design of the stock valves. Skunk2s Doc confirmed this also. Just something to think about.
