Why would they be overkill? I think they would be perfect.

I'm looking at getting either the PAC 1518 or the Dual Patriot Gold Valvesprings. Just wanted to make sure that they will work with the Cam I purchased.

PAC 1518's are good springs and would work perfectly with that cam choice.

The PAC 1518 is a quality spring, no question. I've put about 31k miles on my PAC 1218's in the last year and a half or so, TR224 here as well.

What push rods did you go with 7.400 or the 7.425?

I went with the 7.4" but I didn't measure.

All seems OK but next time I will do it right and measure.
