What is the purpose of a beehive ovate valve spring?

Beehive ovate valve springs are designed to work with smaller, lighter retainers. This reduces the overall mass in the valvetrain, which can help prevent valve float at higher engine speeds and improve performance.

What does the 275lbs rating mean for this spring?

The 275lbs rating refers to the spring pressure. This indicates the force required to compress the spring to a specific installed height, ensuring it can properly close the valve against camshaft forces.

Do I need to order more than one of these springs?

Yes, this listing is for a single valve spring. Your Ford 4.6L 16V engine has multiple valves, so you will need to purchase the appropriate quantity to replace all the springs on your engine.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Ford 4.6L 16V engine, these Ferrea valve springs are a solid choice. They're designed to handle the demands of performance camshafts, ensuring your valves open and close precisely when they should. This single spring is rated at 275 pounds, which is a common requirement for many mild performance builds.

Ferrea uses PAC alloy in these springs, a well-known material for its durability and consistent performance under heat and stress. The beehive ovate design is a popular choice because it allows for smaller, lighter retainers, which reduces overall valvetrain weight and potential for valve float at higher RPMs. This means you get more reliable operation when you push your engine.

This listing is for a single spring, so be sure to order the correct quantity for your engine. For a complete set, you'll need to order one for each valve.
