[boost_creep]

im pulling the head to do a metal head gasket,and wondering if i should upgrade and of my valvetrain for this setup.im taking it to a friends shop where he will port and polish,3 angle valve job and replace stem seals and put it all back together.im curious to know if i should give him new springs,reatainers, or any of that sort,or will the original parts be sufficient.i looked into the hks cams and springs,but it says only stage 2 u need cams,and thats 400+.im not goin past that,so im kinda stuck in the water.any help?

bump...i was thinking about maybe just replacing the springs with new oem ones.but i cant find them anywhere.then started looking into the greddy springs,but with a hks cam?anyone have this combo,or can someone direct me to oem springs.or should i just leave them and just get the cams?....someone help.

what lift/duration cams are you going to use? i would suggest that if you are raising lift, then you should get some aftermarket springs, toda makes some good titanium springs that are around 220 bucks for a set....also get yourself some rocker arm stoppers, i had friend float a valve with his sr and it tore everything to peices....so rocker arm stoppers and new valve springs will help stop valve float at high rpm...hope that helps

well,i was looking into the hks step 1, 256 cams,but it says valve springs recommended for stage two.so should i just stick with the stock ones?thanks
