I have an 83 gt with a .060 bored over 302 with 4 valve relief pistions, gt 4 non p heads, 1.6 rocker arms. Tremec t 5 and 3.73 gears. im looking to get another cam. in now is a lunati voodoo cam 466 int/.483 exh with 10000 miles on set up. There are 270 and 370lbs/in. rate. What springs are best for na street/ strip app. Next question is, the a larger lift lunati cam i want has the same springs for suggested parts of the cam i bought before. can i re use the springs. valve lift with factory rocker is .499 int. /.522exh. is what im going to. Im waiting on summit to get back with me to see what springs i ordered for the first cam. im not sure at this moment.
