What valve springs should I use?

[bzubke1]

What springs should I use? I have a trickflow stage 1 cam and im gonna keep stock gt40 heads and the stock 1.7 rockers. I was gonna use the trickflow spring upgrade kit but it only handles a max lift of .542 with the 1.7 rockers and the cam my lift will be exactly .542 so I wanna go with something a little stronger I'm just not sure what to get. Just looking for some suggestions preferably a kit with retainers and everything. I also don't want to have to machine the heads.Thanks.

Call Summit.

I am sure they have something from Crane or Comp.

Comp is the choice for your application if you want stronger springs. Just call them up.

I am running the same setup, crane 1.7rr, gt40 irons, tfs1 cam. I am using a kit from crane that came with springs and retainers, good for up to .550 lift.

make sure you verify the spring rate in addition to the max lift. Easiest was is to call summit or jegs and tell em what you have and let them make a recommendation.

I just ordered the exact kit. How do you like it? Also did you have to get custom pushrods or did you reuse the stockers?
