Default CC306 & springs question ---->

Ok, I have a question about what kind of valvesprings to use with the CC306

Can I use the LT4 locks/retainers/roller rockers but update the springs to these :

CCA-941-16 COMP Cams Valve Springs
Valve Springs, Single, 1.260 in. Outside Diameter, 447 lbs./ in. Rate, 1.130 in. Coil Bind Height

---------------
Basically I'd be using the LT4 hot cam kit, without the cam, and without the LT4 springs. Just putting in a cc306 cam, with upgraded springs listed above.

Thanks in advance!

I am running the CC987 springs and they work great. I am running titanium reatiners so I don't know if your reatiners will fit but most probably so. Later Clint

I have a barely used set of 977 springs and new cups that I was going to use on a different set of stock heads. They fit but you have to grind out a little in each pocket (not difficult at all) PM me if you want these I will work out a deal for you.
