Exhaust springs for OS .21 TM

[Orph3o]

Hey all,

I had issue with my OS and the exhaust manifold springs.
Basically it is eating gaskets like crazy, and tends to move, hence reducing pressure in lines and creating "temp surges" because of starving.

I did a second set of holes in the manifold, installed a second spring.

Solved the problem.

Bashing yesterday (and did my first backflip BTW) and I lost one of the two.

Here is the question:
Are there different types of springs?
What would you recommend?
Where can I buy them? (My LHS sells OS ones, and the price vs. what it is is simply insulting).

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure how long of ones you need, but generally, springs are springs.
