Which cam and what valvetrain?
Ok. I have the 241 cast heads on my car and I want to keep them on there.
What do you guys reccomend for valvetrain upgrades? I have a set of LS6 springs on the way. Or I may just hold on to them and get these http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...661489f1368683
Any how. Which lifters and rockers do you guys reccomend and which cam.
I'm looking for over 400rwhp with good daily drivability and I don't want to have to worry about valve float at above 6krpms.
W/ lid, ported tb, LTs, ORY, and magnaflow catback I put 351rwhp and 350rwtq so I don't have that much further to go.
I am thinking about a cam a touch bigger then the f14.

If you were planning on leaving th heads on then you don't want lifters.
2nd: If you were going to run LS6 springs, then your cam is probably small enough still that you don't need lifters.
3rd Keep the stock rockers, or atleast the stock ratio.
F-14: use 918's or a dual valve spring. LS6 will be almost like using stock springs.

i don't think the ls6 springs can handle alot of lift but i could be mistaken.the 918s are good for alittle over .600 but if you're planning to run a stick alittle larger than the f14 i'd try to run the biggest springs i could fit.

Ok........new deal here. I'm not doing a cam till at least mid next year and I will be doing heads at the same time w/ fast 90/90.
What do you guys recommend for upgrading the stock valvetrain to make it more stable? I still want to have alot of fun with this car until then.
I'm thinking
1. hardend 7.4 pushrods (not wanting to break anything)
2. putting in those LS6 springs I have (a little higher rpms stability)
3. 1.8 rockers (get a little more lift and efficiency and power)
4. ?????
