Sorry for late reply but I was out of town.
I still have the GX springs but no extra keepers or retainers. Otilram which pistons did you want pictures of?

Tech Wiki say GX double valve springs good to ~8,000 rpm. IMHO, if the OEM spec for the GX head was for double springs, I'd do what the book says. New springs, spring seats, spring caps and retainers are pretty easy to source. If you have a severe case of budgetosis, ask member PJZ if he has any good used bits in his inventory.

I'd like to park myself after Grover for the springs. I also need retainers & keepers. Delta cams suggested my stock springs would be OK with the .425 lift regrind cam but I could shim them if they float. yesterday, after weeks of breaking in the engine I decided to let her rev and felt the power nose over at about 6k. Now I am generally of a mind that if I float the valves that I throw away the springs so I am looking for something better. Would the GX springs not be appropriate?

Tom, do you still have the GX valve springs? Do you also have keepers and retainers for them? I've got a GX head with valves but no springs. Actually I have the carbs/intake/exhaust as well but having the springs would help me to sell the whole package.
OT where did you get the 1200 you have now. I wrenched on one in the late 80's/early 90's here in San Diego.
