Talking critique my combo, lifters/springs/p-rods

i've been researching and i'm now pretty sure of what i want to get. i have a noisy lifter or two (pushrods and rockers are perfect). i plan on doing a cam/pump/chain swap this summer when i start working again.

i want to get the comp 850 (oem replacement) lifters, PRC dual valvespring kit (or patriot perf.), and hardened pushrods along with new bolts and gaskets.

the cam will be around 230ish duration and will be spinning only to around 6500 or so on a g-force tune.

i know some will yell overkill on me, but thats what i like i dont see anything wrong with running stiff springs, i dont mind giving up a few hp to have a nice valvetrain, i'll just work on launches or somthing lol.

so what do you guys think?

p.s. - whoelse sells the PRC kit besides TSP and terry@racetech? and also, whats the difference between the chromoly and the hardened pushrods?

the reason for the valvespring swap now instead of later is that its going to be so much easier with the heads off of the car

sounds like a plan to me. chromoly and hardend PR are one and the same. TSP and Racetech are the only vendors i know off hand selling the PRC springs
