Can anyone who has AFR heads/springs tell me if the color stripe fades over time? I'm trying to decide what springs I have. When talking to AFR, the guy seemed puzzled that my springs don't have any color stripe on them. He did ask me if the inner spring is taller than the outer spring - which it is. They look like AFR's 8019 springs without the color stripe. However, if they were actually 8017, which has no color stripe and a max lift of 600, that would explain why they broke.

So, did mine have a pink/red stripe that faded, or do I have the wrong springs? Can anyone with AFR springs tell me if the color stripe fades over time? I only have about 300 miles on these heads.
