It really is nothing major. IMO I'd rather have to toy with it and still have the integrity than not.

I recently bought lunati kit used, double valvesprings and 1.6 rockers, he used them on stock heads and I'm having a guy at work tell me the springs wont work with a stock cam, what do u guys think?

lol he is pretty knowledgeable and i have basic mechanical knowledge but this isnew territory for me...he said something about too much spring pressure? I'm not sure exactly. But I should be fine right as long as I can achieve close to that install height?

My engine builder prefers higher spring pressures vs low ones....he says no issues and this is what he does for a living, so trust his advice. I’d take the word of a machinist who builds engines for a living over someone who is knowledgeable and doesn’t do it for a living

You should include more details and maybe start your own more current thread for a better response.
