forgot about springs too... I know I should use 7.4 rods.. thats on the list. What about springs? I was told LS6 springs would work good with my old cam choice.. can I do LS6s or should I do different? do I need to just look for the same diameter as the LS6? smaller? bigger? any info on that and LBS/in rate.. any of that other good stuff I need to know about. Thanks guys

 

LS6 springs are good for .550" lift. I would go with Patriot Golds myself. They handle plenty of lift (.650") and come with Ti retainers, new seats, new seals, and keepers.

 

and those will drop in fine in my 4.8? I also dont have a big wallet 2 blow on springs cuz I need those and rods at the same time, then a converter and atleast half the money 4 a tune and Ill drop that bad boy in. Thanks tho, that helped alot

 

BoostJunkie should have a set for 245 shipped.

i can't afford to buy them right now after all the **** i bought for my 6.0 without a little more cash to back up the rest of the month.
PM him and see what he can do

 

cool thanks bro.. thats still a little much for me but any little bit helps. Thanks again, good luck with that 6.0 2

 

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...0&autoview=sku that kit says the rods are for use with stock cam.. think they'll be alright with my 221?

 

You will want 7.4" pushrods, so those are correct. The kit in Summit is going to cost the same as getting the Patriot springs ($250) and 7.4 pushrods ($100) separately. I think the springs in that kit are 918's, just make sure they are the newest batch if you go that route. Certain 918 springs have had problems in the past.
