im going to be using a steeda #18 cam with gt40p heads and 1.7 if my ptv works out will the trickflow spring upgrade kit be enough or should i get springs with a stronger steat.
this is the kit im refering to http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...0%201&comp=LRS
thanks for the help

 

What is the lift of the new camshaft?

 

.510 with 1.7 rrs

 

For the "correct" springs you should contact the cam manufacturer and get the specs of the springs that they recommend.. There is a lot of variables for choosing the right springs. As far as the Trickflow spring upgrade goes, i have a set on my gt40p heads with an e-cam, but since i have installed them i have heard some bad reviews about the keepers they use with that kit. They use a stamped keeper whereas the proven quality springs recommend a machined keeper for added security. You don't want your keepers to break and drop a valve on a piston.. If you give me the cam specs i can compare them to these springs to see if they are compatible..

 

sounds like ill give steeda a call they sell springs but they dont list any info on them or maybe ill just buy upgraded keepers, thanks for the help
