What springs (or rather what pressures) are you going to run? How aggressive is the camshaft?

I have the dual golds, thinking about shimming them??. running epp fi cam
Cam specs are:
Dur @ .050 232 int 240 exh
Lift .595 int .608 exh Lobe Sep 115.0
All other parts getting from you as you guys gave me the best quote this is a in the process build just trying to put the big picture together on paper first. Would you be the person to talk to about some other questions on the build?

Even once you shim those springs, there isn't going to be so much spring pressure that it'd be problematic with a new LS7 lifter. Be sure to check your swipe pattern, installed heights, lifter preload, etc to ensure safe and trouble free operation!
