I am buying hks 272/272 cams, but what springs and retainers should i get? I am not looking to rev past 8k. i was looking at crower and brain crower theres a 50 dollar difference.
 
Both will work fine, I would imagine the BC are the cheeper of the two? I run the crowers & they work fine but if I was buying again & if they were the same price, I'd probably go BC as if I recall correctly I believe they have abit more seat pressure. Another option would be Manley.
 
I am going to chime in as well and say BC. Both products are quality as well as some others but why spend more money if you don't have to :thumb:
 
Just to add, I've seen stock retainers and springs go to the stock rev limit fine w/ hks 272s. These were daily drivers. No reliability issues.

I like the Manleys. They seam to be working great for me.
