Default L92 heads & forced induction??

What are you guys running for valve springs on the L92 heads with a forced induction application? Installed height & seat pressure?? I'm more interested in hydraulic roller set-ups, but if you're running a solid chime in as well.

I'm wondering if the Comp 26918 springs will work, or would I need something along the lines of the Comp 26120 springs. I'm not even sure if the spring pad is large enough for the 26120's, but I'm sure they can be machined.


TIA,

K.

It depends on the cam you are running. That will have a large effect on the whole situation.

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I was hoping to get some input from current combinations, that might give me some food-for-thought.

We're not done "working" with the heads yet, so some things like the camshaft/lifter selection haven't been finalized yet. In doing some more reading research I'm thinking more along the lines of CompCams part#26921 kit.
