About a few months ago I put an LS6 cam and long tubes in. I replaced the intake valves, intake pushrods, new springs, and new lifters. The springs and lifters aren't stock LS1 parts. Well I have been running into weird problems with bogging and everything. I originally did the project so I could tear my engine apart and learn something.

I have been researching the FM14 cam and it seems like it would be pretty good for what I want to do. What I want to know is will it be fine to put into the car with the lifters and springs I have? I rarely hot rod the car and drive it pretty conservatively with this 3.10/gallon.... Opinions are greatly appreciated

 

You might want to list what springs they are?

An F14 is a .600" lift cam (.598) so any good springs that will support a .650 lift cam should work fine.

I bought PRC gold duals to run with an F14.

 

They are brand new LS6 springs I believe. Keep in mind I will rarely run the car hard.

 

you need to be concerned with the more aggressive ramp rates of the cam

 

just get the PRCs and call it a day. Thats what I run with mine.

 

I also strongly advise you to upgrade from the LS6 springs, even if you don't get on the throttle much.

 

i wouldnt run a F14 with ls6 springs. My F14 specd out over .601 according to the cam card (results may vary)

 

Well, where can I find these springs.. I was hoping to keep it around $400. I am only 17. I am kinda iffy about tearing the engine down again, but I had fun.

 

I would 918 that cam like a *****!

 

what about coil bind?......arent ls6 springs only good for .570 lift. do the math, how can can they possibly work when the f14 has .598 lift. i personally went with prc golds with my f14.

 

Dual springs are the way to go, but you can shim a 918 and run .610 with no problems.

 

wouldnt shimming a spring reduce the spring height therefore causing more severe coil bind.

 

what size injectors do you plan on running??

 

you will most likely need injectors to like 01ss was asking about. I well over maxed mine out, just got the SVO 30lbers in the mail yesterday.. just something else to consider

 

Great.. Fuel injectors are damn expensive. Where can I order this stuff?
