Valve Spring calculation based on cam
Hello all,
Sorry if this is something that has been asked 5 million times, but I was unable to find anything related with a quick search.
I'm basically looking for the proper way to find the proper valve springs for the cam I have.
My cam is as follows(from summit description):
Hydraulic flat tappet
RPM Range - 2200/5700
Duration at 050 inch lift - 224 in/234 exh
Valve Lift with Factory Rocker - .465 in/.488 exh
This is in a chevy 350 with a .060 bore. I'm going to vortec heads and need to figure out what springs I need.
The truck use is for playing in the mud and general road use.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. And if I forgot any information, please feel free to call me an idiot and I'll try to provide what's needed.
