I'm getting ready to put a set of Comp 910-16 springs in a E99 and want to change the seals while I'm there. What's my best option ? And from where ? And where to get .030 shims from for the springs also. Thanks !

I haven't had issues with felpro products in the past. I was just told not to use there 7.3 valve seals. But if nk one has had issues then I don't see any reason to not try them.

Felpro im sure will be fine, Riffraff can have you the ford OEM ones for pretty much the same price. Ford ones are known to go well over 300'000 miles just fine, thats what I used.
