I'm going to be taking apart the top end of my camaro in the coming weeks. Going to add some performance, too. Well, I can't figure out which valve springs to get.

Which ones would work best (for my money) with 1.6 rocker arms?

The first one is just the valve springs with 308 lb/in.
The second is a kit with valves, lifters, and retainers; 378 lb/in.

 

Valve springs are matched to the camshaft to select, what are you installing?

It's the stock camshaft. Will be doing that later when I have a little more money.


I don't have much money, but the clyinder heads need new gaskets, and thought I would replace a few things, that I can afford, which I'm sure need to be replaced soon.

I was going to get the camshaft, headers, valves, rockers, pushrods, lifters, etc....but needed to spend money on something else. So now I have to pick and choose. Still doing price comparison.

 

What about with this cam, or one with similar specs like from Delta (since they are cheaper in price)?

I'm trying to budget build this. I don't need an over the top performance, just a little more "go" for a little more mpg and excitement in daily driving (ie: corners/on ramps).

Any help will be much appreciated.

 

Seems too close to stock IIRC.
If I'm going through the *** pain of a cam swap, I'd spend $30 more for a noticable difference.

I haven't decided on which cam yet, i'll probably have Delta make a custom one for me. Calling them tomorrow and see what springs, lifters, etc they have/recommend, and check their pricing.

But it says that comp cam isn't computer compatible. Need 112 lob separation, don't I?
