a post in engine tech suggested the use of sc3800 valve springs and retainers for use on turbo heads #8445 if they would work.

Does anyone have the spring pressures( closed/open) as well as the installed height of the these valve springs. Are tghe rocker ratio 1.55?

also does anyone know the specs of the roller cam use in the sc 3800?
lift, duration, lobe separation angle, etc. intake and exhaust events of open and closing, overlap would be great.

Thanks
 
The springs are Federal-Mogul VS-1628. They are beehive springs and require different retainers. They are rated closed 78 lbs @ 1.71" and open 228 lbs at 1.278". Spring rate is 350 lbs/inch and have a 1.945" free length. 0.187" wire diameter. Solid height is 1.18" so they will only take around .480" max lift.
