Valve Springs
i got another dumb *** question (sorry i'm new to all this, just trying to learn)
What's the difference between single and dual valve springs?
When do you need what?
Single valve springs are lighter, but cannot take as much lift of the cam.
Dual are heavier, but can usally take a larger lift of the cam. (most LS1 DVS are .650" maximum Lift)
What you need depends on what cam you have/use.
I hear that one should not rev the engine until the springs are nice and warm on a modified car. However, at the track people push their cammed cars to the line trying to keep the motor cool. Is this a myth and do you have to break in springs for 500 miles?
