  3. Anyone have good advice for valve spring change

    in General SS

    Posted · Edited by everfife (see edit history)

    Ok, so I have the XR275HR cam with LS6 yellow springs on L92 heads. I am installing 76mm@ 8lbs turbo(I know, not a good boost cam, but Im running with it). I just purchased the PRC 320s springs rated at .650 . When installing the springs, do I have to change anything as far as spring height? The LS6 spring height is 1.800 while the PRC are 1.810. These springs were recommended by another SS member. I see that the springs are rated 144lb @ 1.810 closed and I cant seem to find the LS6 spring specs. Any information is appreciated

  5. Turbo build, valve spring question

    in General SS

    Posted

    So, I finally decided to boost my truck. I am going to run it on my current cam,Comp Cams XR275HR .566/.568 Lift-222/224 Duration 112 LSA. Not the best cam for boost, but Comp Cam says it will work with my 76mm turbo, running a max of 12lbs of boost.

     

    My question is, I have GM LS6 yellow springs currently with max lift specs of .580 . Should I replace my springs with the double springs? If so, is it necessary to replace the keepers and spring retainers? If its not necessary, Id like to save the $450. Thanks for your input in advance

    Stoshball, tell Tom I said props on the great truck. For a while, the other guy was trying to take credit for Toms build. I figured he didn't have anything to do with the build based on his answers to my questions. I pm ' ed Tom, but I know he hasn't been active since 2012. I take great care with this truck. It will not see winter!

    He was last active Oct 2012. The guy who bought the truck from him found me on Facebook. His profile is: hitchc21 . I was asking questions about the type of injectors, what heads are on it, etc and he finally told me he didnt do anything to it. He sent me a link to what 1bad70monte did to it.

  21. Running Rough

    in General SS

    Posted

    Just an update, I found a dry rotted hose, that I believe goes to the fuel pressure regulator. I also read a post talking about the Walbro 255 fuel pump that I have installed. They were talking about how the pump doesnt like anything less than a 1/4 tank. So far, knock on wood, my truck has been running flawless. Weird, but either the hose or pump was acting up causing my truck to studder/misfire. Any thoughts of what might have caused this? Shortly after my last post, I finally got a code which was an injector code. I cleared it, fixed the hose and havent let the truck lower than a 1/4 tank.

    Well, just got a P 200 injector code. Hooked it up to the tech 2 and ran a cyl injector test. Both 4 and 5 bank aren't working. Could this be a tuning issue? Like I somehow messed the tune up by removing the battery? Now I'm stuck as this is my dd. Did a light test and the computer is commanding the injectors
