Ok, I think I am keeping the E7s on the vert. Do you guys think this cam is too much for the stock springs?

Stock springs are rated at (closed) 74-82 pounds @ 1.78" and (open) 211-230 lb./inch @ 1.33" on the intake.

Exhaust specs on stock springs check in at (closed) 77-85 lb./in.@ 1.60" and (open) 200-226 lb./in. @ 1.15" on the exhaust.

I'd definitely change them according to the cam you listed above.

These may work for you:

Or go with the part # they gave for springs for the cam you listed.

Yep, I think I am going to order those springs today for mine. I am at the point now and ready to do the cam swap. Probally the ported heads too. I gotta get this thing in the 12's to shut this kid up that keeps running his mouth. I dont care if it's 12.99, its still 12's. HAHAHAAHAHAHH
