Springs need to be changed. Others can remain stock.

you must change the springs, how about the asa or hotcam, your can run LS6springs with these cams to keep the cost down and still make a great power increase while not being harsh on springs and having to change them every 15-20k

No, they won't work. Too much lift for them.

I second that, patriot golds are awesome for the money, buy the dual spring kit, and you'll be good to go.
