Fel-Pro Premium Valve Stem Seals-Anyone use them?

[fst]

in process of getting new valve seals as well as valve spring retainers for my 105# springs. someone from CGP said i can get the Fel-Pro brand that advanced auto sells, but needs to be the viton types. i called advance auto and the guy said they only have the Fel-Pro Premiums part #SS72144. he doesnt know if they're the viton type since it'll need to be special ordered. So my question is rather than pay the vendors(no offense) for a set of valve stem seals with mark up, can i get away and use the ones advance auto or pep boys sell?
thanks in advance.


also-if anyone haslower mileage or NIB valve spring retainers for the 105# springs please PM me

Not sure if those are Viton seals or not, but Fel-Pro in my opinion is about the best gasket you can get (other than the MLS head gasket).

I have used LOTS of the felpro valve seals for these engines, for spring changes or full rebuilds. They are normally around $20 and easy to install. If they are blueish green in color then they are the correct seals and I dont know that they offer more than one for this application anyways. When I get them from my local engine machine shop they dont give me any options.

Take pictures too. I love pictures with part numbers and descriptions. You may think Im crazy, but I hardly ever stop thinking about organizing information here. So if you can, humor me.
