question for ho guys
Thursday, August 06, 2009 7:43 PM
I was planning on running the H.O. cams and up with a delemma, to use the 2.3 or 2.4 valve springs seeing as have heard few turbo guys saying to use the 2.3 so no valve float but I am staying N/A and rebuilding my motor yet again for higher compression, so basically would only be less then a year, Scott (Lafngas), thinks should be ok with 2.4 springs, but I am not sure, anyone running 2.4 springs and H.O cams at the momment with success?

I am running HO cams with stock springs. The only problem is you cant rev above 7000. After that you will most likely dropping a valve. I would use 2.3 springs. Its an easy upgrade. I have some i can sell you!

I am using the stock power steering. I dont like the look of the 2.3 ps pump. Its really easy to mod the cam and zyaaa can get the tower bored. It is a little cheaper to run the 2.3 ps but not worth it in my eyes.

i ran stock springs for awhile and now i run the 2.3 springs because i put a diff head on and thought i might as well swap springs as i already have them.

When I do the swap I will be using my 2.4 springs. I have the Mantapart stiffer springs though. My limiter is set to 7000 anyway.

cool sounds good, and you wont run too rich if your using hpt to adjust for them. if ur just popping them in untuned then yes you will run rich.
