Thanks Mike. The cam can be had relatively cheap. I paid $395 for a custom grind cam, then upgraded my springs to dual polished springs with Ti retainers for an additional $300. I think the spring kit is overkill, and you could probably get away new beehives for quite a bit cheaper. I just went with the duals since it was only a $50 upgrade to the labor on porting/polishing the heads. I'm shocked how easy all this has been so far. This is my first time doing any kind of engine work, so I'm learning as I go.
