A method of introducing torsional load into a phaser, having the steps of determining the required torsional load between the rotor and housing needed to generate the desired performance in the phaser, choosing the number of springs to introduce the required torsional load based on space and design requirements of the torque generating device, and determining the spring characteristics required for the desired performance of the phaser. The springs are circumferentially placed in the end plate fixed to the housing having spaced block projections, and a spring retention plate fixed to the rotor having apertures for receiving the spaced block projections. One end of the springs are placed adjacent to tabs located on a back side of the spring retention plate and the other end of the springs are placed adjacent to the block projections of the end plate, such that motion between the rotor and housing introduces torsional load.
