Ok.. I have been looking through post all day, but I can't come up with anything usefull. It might just be me.
What I am looking for is a set of valve springs that would offer a higher springrate than stock. I am running a set of Street grind 546/547 web cams ( cam card ) with 3G lifters.
The reason That I want to get the higher rated springs is because the tolerances are tighter on my motor because of decking/ surfacing of the head and block. I Figured out that I should be safe with the extra bit of thickness from the OEM mitsu MLS, But I still want to be safe when I bounce into the higher R's.
I do remember reading somewhere, sometime ago about shimming the springs to give them a little more compression, but I never really knew much about this, or if it was advised. If anybody has "actually" heard of this, Please let me know.
I was looking at some info on the evo honeycomb springs, but I cant find anything decisive on the specs to say that they are much better than stockers. I'm trying to keep this in the lower price range, so any info an a good setup would help.
Thanks... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
