Thats what I was thinking but I wasnt sure. Do you think I need to upgrade the lifters with this cam. I have ones out of a iron head motor with less than 45,000 on them?
Some guys say yes some guys say its not worth the money with low miles like that.

If they roll freely then there is no need to replace them. Don't waste the money unless it's necessary.

i would go for patriot springs i berly bought some for my 355 lt1 with a 549 lift cam it would be worth it

The first one is correct but the seconed one is for BBs. So still no info on these yet.

Damn, my bad. I just copied the part number from the first link. Didn't even see the Big Block info at the bottom. Guess that's a typo on their website.

I wonder if they accidentally sent me the wrong springs or something when I put together my CC-503 kit... It would explain why I needed different shims than the ones provided. Then again, I don't think big block springs would fit in the LTX head, could have just been the wrong shims. Guess I'll never know lol.
