tsp 224r cam
what valve springs should i run with this cam (224/224 .581"/.581" 112 lsa)? how long should these springs go before needing replacement? im looking for valvesprings that last at least ~20k miles with daily driving and weekly track use (if they exist ). im also considering the tr224 cam, but id rather go with this one since it has a bit more lift.

If you're gonna purchase from TSP, ask about the Patriot duals.
REV duals work good.
You can splurge and get the Comp921's.
Crane duals.
918's may get ya to 20K, but might as well get duals.

The 224R is a good choice. It's a GREAT street/strip cam and will make some great power while retaining great streetability. We have a cam kit with your choice of camshaft, Crane dual valve springs, titanium retainers, hardened spring seats, valve seals, and TSP hardened pushrods for $759.99 + shipping (and tax if you're in Texas). This way you get a great package price with the peace-of-mind of a dual valve spring.

thanks for the info, so far i think im going to go with the 224R, PP 5.7 stage 2 ls6 heads, and the PP dual valve springs. you guys think this combo sounds good, or are the PP stg 2 ls6 heads overkill?
