Re: Vortec L05 LT1 LT4 Hotcam question
Yes, the beehive springs with the matching retainers will allow you to run that cam without any machining. Here is a link to an article about it.

In my case I used Crane Valve Spring Retainer Kit – P/N 10309-1. Works fine, but the Crane kit is no longer available.

Re: Vortec L05 LT1 LT4 Hotcam question
Yes Also you need Comp Cam retainers PN 787-16, $50 from Summit, and valve stem seals you can pick up at a local parts store for under $2 each, either cross Sealed Power PN ST2015 or look them up for a Dodge Daytona 4cyl Turbo.
Also to same some money on shipping across the ocean you might try a GM dealer over there. GM PN: 12499224 set of 16, same EXACT thing summit sells.
