Turbo Diesel Valve Springs in a 16V?

A 16V question for tha list...


A friend of mine is planning on building up a 16V head very soon.

Does anyone know if there are there any advantages of replacing the stock valve springs on a 16V with
those from mk2 Turbo Diesel?  I've heard that the Turbo Diesel springs are stiffer than the stock 16V
ones, and allow for revs up to 8000rpm with no valve float.

Any comments?

Thanks.
