The springs were PRC I believe. Part of their kit.
They tested:
136lb @ 1.800 installed height
432lb @ 1.125 .660 Max
My cam was .629 lift
So, a little light on seat pressure
The bottom end looks good. Rod bearing are perfect and mains had a few groves, but nothing to worry about. A few metal flakes in the pan but the filter was full and looked like metallic paint. Time to shop for some forged rods and pistons. Oh, and a smaller SC pulley

The cam is oiled first then down to mains. Thats likely why.
Also the stock barbell allows ALOT of larger particles by as well as the stock in pan bypass and filter bypass. Thats why youd plug them with the Saccity kit we have and use the better barbell to decrease foreign particle size/bypass anyway.

I think most of us do, but that is dictated by engine design, which most of us have no power over.
