I would check with your cam manufacturer and see what they reccommend . I personally rec springs in any car with over 50k on the clock and over 30k if its a 5 speed car as they spend more time in the higher rpm range than an auto car . The guy to talk to about cams specifically on this board is acmiller he knows quite a bit and will probably give you the best advice. Chris

Not knowing too much on cams but i would feel safer if i was getting a bigger cam with n02 to beefing up any part i can.

White99stang · May 1st, 2008, 11:13 PM

wow, thats all i got to say is wow. when it comes to putting cams in you should call the manufacture of them and ask them. No meth for nitrous there buddy, use what is meant to be used, fuel. what does the 75mm throttle bodie have to do with anything, you can put one on anytime you want. its a damn throttle bodie not something that is going to hurt your heads or springs

With the Cushman Motosports (VT)stage 1's they say you can run stock springs but the stage 2's you cant depends on how crazy you wanna get
email Jim at Cushman his tech support is great jim@cushmanmotorsports.com

I have been trying to find someone to help me out with a ? that i cannot seem to get. i have called all west coast and east and so far nothing has been resolved. i have a 97 v6 mustang receiving a remanufactured block next week with less than 16,000 miles on it. stock by all means. i need to know what kind of turbo can i put on it where can i get it from and how much can i put on the stock engine psi wise with out making any internal mods.

White99stang · July 17th, 2008, 10:57 PM

uh wrong section much

steve-oHals21 · July 17th, 2008, 11:03 PM

well i cant find a god damn place to talk to anyone that has the same car as me or knows alot about it so if you know someone on here or a place to go for my year help me out if not im going to post forums everywhere till i get someone that knows something

White99stang · July 17th, 2008, 11:10 PM

uh we have a V6 section you should try there first. And i don't know why you want to put a turbo on a stock v6. but us v8 guys don't really get too much into the 6'ers so i doubt anyone in here would know where you can get a turbo kit for it. And for psi wise about 10psi will be about it. So spending 5-6k on a turbo kit for your car and you will probrably make what the stock v-8's make

acmillr · July 18th, 2008, 08:43 AM

I'll attempt to address the stock spring question. First, let's realize that the stock springs were designed to be used at a relatively low RPM redline- forget all the lift/duration BS for right now. An aftermarket cam(s) has a primary function of extending RPM range and building better HP numbers. Understand that large HP gains will not, generally speaking, be seen if RPM limit is not raised. So, to answer your question, using the cheap stock valve springs in an engine with extended RPM limits is not a good idea. If I had to pick one part in the modular motors that needs to be upgraded, it would be the valve springs. Even if you run a low lift, running over 6000 RPM's on stock springs will eventually cause valve float. I'm sure that VT, Comp, and other manufacturers will say they have a cam designed fo rstock spring use. However, you have to realize that they only stand to make more profit when you tear your shit up.
