Which valvesprings did you go with, and how hard was the install?

manley springs... they are what took the longest... it sucks. haha... next time i do that... the heads off the car will be much easier.

Its all opinion man, trust me, you have some people that say since you dont get the full effect of stage 2's its not worth it, but then you got people who say who cares... there still better... then people say they love there stage 1's.. I personly would go with stage 1's.

well, dude... My plans are to build a forged motor ready for a blower, so in theory stage 2s would work... but I want a stable idle and don't feel the need to rev to 7 grand, so yeah stage 1 blower cams....

Care to do a write up on the install? I'd love to get cams, but don't want to pay the price for install. I've been quoted $1800 before.

I'm thinking about going with the VT Stage 2 Blower Cams with the Comp Valve springs from vt engines.

I've had the valve covers off before because I installed new ones and I installed the SC.
