Re: Shout out to Mike Jones 2!!
PSI makes a 1.300" spring that IMO would work well for you and lose some mass/weight in the process . We even use it on boosted stuff, running .850" + lift and 45psi, and they run them at 9500 rpm thru the lights on a good pass . The valve weight is similar to what you are suing due to be...

My v4.70 testimonial. I just got back from Paris TN where we spent 2 days on the dyno. One of the engines was my 1970 LT1 Super Stock engine. I had modeled it in the program and had the number I was shooting for. It came within 6 hp and nailed the torque! I had a new set of headers built and we didn...
