Hey xr8ute do you mean all ISKY double valve springs or all brands of double valve springs when it comes to machining the head to make them fit gt40p heads?

I am running the Crane 2030 with 1.6:1 RR's (its designed for 1.6:1)...

Idle is OK with stock EECV but its a little lumpy (car shakes at idle). Stock dyno was 139.5rwkw, stock + cam was 161.5rwkw. Now with extractors and 3" zorst, its 170.5rwkw.

chrisredden, i haven't come across any double valve spring that doesn't require head machining.

Yep, AU1 XR8 auto.

Difference was fantastic. More power everywhere, but most importantly it was still making power up to the rev limiter. Standard cam was dead by 4500rpm...

My PB at the track with this cam, springs, rockers and nothing else (i.e. sotck exhaust and airfilter/airbox) was 14.544 @ 95.02mph
