I'm not planning to raise my redline, but I am planning to raise compression and do a cam swap later. cams are easy with the head on the block...valves are impossible

My personal feeling is that if you are going to go with Toda cams in the future, you should get their valve springs because you know they will handle the uprated duty. I'm not saying that others won't, but personally I would feel most comfortable with knowing for sure that the Toda's will.

joe alaniz really knows his stuff, I've met him once before at the track. I feel confident that if I get parts from him they will be great for my application.

Bass - thanks for the link! that'll help a lot once i get the parts.

ItalianBucwheat - I planned to take pics while i was doing it, but each friend (4 at various times, but nexus helped especially) that came over to help forgot to bring their camera!
