Valve Spring Re-call

Hey all pretty new here to this site. Long story picked up a built and supercharged 13 last year. Had it delivered and after 3 miles it threw the serpentine belt = ARRGH! sat in the shop all winter because I could not get the answer on the belt size, Ok I could have taken the numbers off the old one if! my 23 yr old helper was not so helpful and threw it away on the way home!!!

Anyhew I finally have it together and 300+ hp and a handling package on these is mind blowing. Then I get a re-call letter for valve springs. I call the local dealer and set an appointment he says great I say HKS SC and he says sorry no coverage! This is not a warranty item it is a recall. he states that I must return the car to complete stock, which is impossible. Should a dealer do it if I remove the SC and put a stock timing belt on it? I just cannot return it completely to stock.
